*gettext calls should be properly validated for the correct number/type of
arguments and an error/warning should be issued if the signature does not
match.

Some examples which currently produce po file entries w/o any
errors/warnings:


gettext(some_arg="hello") - gettext takes only one positional argument
gettext("hello", "asdad") - same for this
ngettext("asd", "sdfsdfsd") - missing n argument


These should either be errors or at least warnings as they will result in
runtime errors.
