[i18n-activity] payment shipping option label not localizable (#1357)

aphillips has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/i18n-activity:

== payment shipping option label not localizable ==
PaymentShippingOption dictionary 
https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/CR-payment-request-20201203/#paymentshippingoption-dictionary

> >  label member
>    A human-readable string description of the item. The user agent SHOULD use this string to display the shipping option to the user. 

The `label` member has no language or direction metadata. Further, it cannot be localized by providing reference to a multilingual construct of some sort. There doesn't appear to be a language negotiation mechanism so that a language can be requested.

The SHOULD might be problematic vs. allowing the user agent to wrap the provided display string with a localized value, i.e. it could say something approximately like:

> The user agent SHOULD use this string (or a localized version available to the user agent locally) to display the shipping option to the user.
