[i18n-activity] payment-request lacking language negotiation mechanism (#1373)

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

== payment-request lacking language negotiation mechanism ==
(throughout the spec, some examples follow)
https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/CR-payment-request-20201203/#payererrors-dictionary
https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/CR-payment-request-20201203/#paymentshippingoption-dictionary
https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/CR-payment-request-20201203/#show-method

Throughout the payment-request spec we note that natural language text values are returned. From our teleconference of 2021-03-25 we decided to group a number of pending issues into two buckets:

* The need for language and direction metadata on natural language items (already tracked in payment-request 327)
* The need for localizability of natural language fields (e.g. the ability to have more than one language present)
* The need for a language negotiation mechanism so that the the API caller can receive natural language messages such as errors or labels in their preferred language/locale (if available)

This issue tracks the last of these.
