fix/untangle_from_LF (#88)

* fix/untangle_from_LF

untangles configuration from lingua-franca, ovos-config should be the source of truth for everything config related

fix: LF was optional, but if installed would stop core from loading if configured language was unsupported

* Update locale.py

ovos_config/locale.py
