Hi @Luuk

The PR introduces a `UMB_VARIANT_CONTEXT`, laying the groundwork for another PR …to add culture-aware search to document/media pickers. I have chosen a solution for the context that is as standalone as possible. I wanted to avoid having any dependencies from the variant module to the language module, as that would introduce an illegal import. I believe this is the most flexible solution. This PR currently utilizes the new context within the `UmbDocumentItemDataResolver` class, which is responsible for displaying the correct document name/state, etc., in the tree, pickers, and other places that reference a document. How to test: * Please ensure that the document name is correct when changing variant in a variant document.
