Let users filter by document's language
Users may be interested in browsing documents that are only in their preferred language instead of seeing all the fallback documents.

I would set it up so filter appears always when template with doc is selected in filters and collection has more than one document language.
What do you guys think?
@OzrenMuic eventually this can be connected to another issue: documents have some properties that are not part of the user defined template: title, date added, language. We also wanted to add "date modified" to these properties.
If we open these properties so that users can configure them, language could be an optional property/filter that users can activate if they want to.
Some databases have added the "language" property to their documents.
@OzrenMuic a particularity of Uwazi is that users get the content in their current UI selected language (falling back to the default/available language if the content is not available in your preferred lang).
Ideally we want to detach the language of the content from the language of the UI, so users can access content in any language without being forced to switch UI's languages. This may entail more effort on our end (I hope a dev more familiar with the lang model can asses this effort cc: @konzz @RafaPolit ).
Regardless of this issue, users still need to be able to see content only in a particular language, deactivating the fallback behavior.

This behavior has been changed recently in https://github.com/huridocs/uwazi/pull/2754
