/**
 * Wrapper methods for \Drupal\Core\StringTranslation\TranslationInterface.
 *
 * Using this trait will add t() and formatPlural() methods to the class. These
 * must be used for every translatable string, similar to how procedural code
 * must use the global functions t() and \Drupal::translation()->formatPlural().
 * This allows string extractor tools to find translatable strings.
 *
 * If the class is capable of injecting services from the container, it should
 * inject the 'string_translation' service and assign it to
 * $this->stringTranslation.
