expand: check language properties (#2724)

# Description

Improvement in `check_language_properties.py`:

Added support for local Windows commands to check language properties
files with an updated script.
Added a new optional argument `--check-file` to specify a single file to
check, replacing the need to process all files in the directory.
Adjusted file path handling to better support Windows paths.

Update to `update-translations.yml`:

Added `workflow_dispatch` trigger to allow manual execution of the
workflow.

Documentation update in `HowToAddNewLanguage.md`:

Added instructions for running the language properties check locally on
Windows, including example commands.
These changes streamline the process of checking language properties
files and provide additional flexibility for local testing and manual
workflow triggering.
