Added the foundation for making the frontend multilingual. Now only need to import useTranslation and use t('key') for all user-facing text for all pages (+add key:value pairs in src/locales for each language ofc)

- package.json -> Imported packages i18next & react-i18next for multilingual functionality.
- src/App.jsx -> Imported LanguageSwitcher from ./components/LanguageSwitcher and added <LanguageSwitcher /> component at the beginning of layout so it's always visible.
- src/components/LanguageSwitcher.jsx -> LanguageSwitcher component, consists of a dropdown menu that always appears at top right corner for choosing language.
- src/i18n.js -> Initialize and configure i18next for app-wide multilingual support.
- src/locales/en.json + src/locales/fr.json -> Empty json files that will soon contain translation key:value pairs for each page.
- src/main.jsx -> Imported src/i18n.js for multilingual functionality.
