Subject: [PATCH] fix: i18n: Use 'en' as default language (#3242)
* fix: i18n: Use 'en' as default language
Using 'cimode' as default language code will return the
translation keys verbatim without doing interpolation.
This is unwanted unless working directly on localization.
Fixes #3240
* Add release note
