With directory queries off, the server refuses Principal/query, and the webmail then had no names at all. Shares showed a raw account id, and the event editor said guests weren't on this server even when they were.

Share dialog: falls back to Principal/get, so existing shares show names, and the people the user already has a connection to can be picked.
Event editor: free/busy works for people who shared with the user. For anyone else the caption now says the server keeps its directory private, and no longer claims the guest isn't on the server.

The caption text is unchanged when the setting is on.

Translations: one new plural string, added to all 10 catalogs. The catalogs are still at 100%, with 0 falling back to English.

Goes with inbuxa/inbuxa-server#283, which lets Principal/get answer for the people on the user's own shares. Not tested against a server without that change.

Tested: the CI steps locally, a new store test, and an end-to-end browser run with the setting off and on.

With directory queries off the server refuses Principal/query. Fall back to
Principal/get, which still answers for the accounts the reader has a connection
to, so the share dialog shows names and can offer those people, and free/busy
works for colleagues who shared with the reader. The event editor no longer
says a guest isn't on this server when it has no way of knowing.
