Description

The translation of toggle in French is basculer. However, in IT context, we don't really use this verb.
It is used in AppFlowy for Toggle Lists. When we toggle a list, in french, we rather use plier (fold) and déplier (unfold).

Is it possible to have 2 translation keys instead of only editor.toggleListShortForm? For instance:

editor.foldListShortForm
editor.unfoldListShortForm

Impact

Improve the readability for Toggle Lists

Additional Context

Fold and Unfold are often used in files explorers for directories and are, IMHO, more appropriate in the context of a list which can be folded 😉, while Toggle is more appropriate for switch buttons (which often replace checkboxes in modern UI).

Nevermind... I've installed the Android app and found out where "toggle" was used... I should have paid closer attention... Therefore my last PR is incomplete...
