Subject: [PATCH] Drop the translation claim from the dashboard footnote

The footnote said translation traffic is counted under the corresponding
English series. That is true for three of the four translations and not
the fourth, so as written it is wrong.

lecture-python.zh-cn, lecture-python-programming.fa and
lecture-python-programming.fr all carry the same measurement ID as their
English site, so their readers are counted, inseparably, under the
English series. lecture-intro.zh-cn has analytics commented out in
lectures/_config.yml and its deployed pages carry no GA tag at all, so
its readership is counted nowhere.

Rather than qualify a sentence that is incidental to the point of the
footnote, it goes. The tagging gap is a real issue and is being tracked
separately in QuantEcon/website-dynamic.
