Return true from AddCatalog() if message ID matches language

When the original messages language matches the language of the locale
being used, these strings can be used directly and so AddCatalog()
should still return true for them but it didn't do it any more after the
changes of 94b1a17 (Add AddAvailableCatalog() and use it in
AddStdCatalog(), 2023-09-30).

See wxWidgets#18227.

Closes wxWidgets#24019.

Closes wxWidgets#24037.
