[EAS] Multilingual support for CAP messages

[Mike McCarthy]

WEA is a geo-targeted method which follows the NWS warning polygons.  Eg:
If a flood warning is given for NW Cook Co., those in SE Cook don't see
the warning on their phones.

Also, the NWS here is exceedingly mindful of issuing TOR's for Cook County
given it's length and density of population end to end. They will and have
purposely narrowed the polygon to minimize the number of people pinged in
a given area.

So, don't be surprised if you don't receive a warning if you're in Cook
(or really any county) and you are located outside the specific warning
polygon.
