This is related to bug 725319 and bug 736898 , but uses python client

The zanata push command has two problems when used for offline translation:
1. only allowed to admin or project maintainers, not translators
2. the client pushes source text (POT files), not just translations (PO)

(Plus a lot of translators will prefer a UI, but that's a separate issue.)

We can fix #1 by changing the security rules on the server, to allow 'translator' role to push translations (but not source).

We can fix #2 by adding another option to the Maven/Python clients, eg --push-trans-only

So the use case will be:

Admin/project maintainer:
1. Push pot files only
2. Push pot files and po files.
3. Push po files only.

Translator:
1. Push po files only.
