Rename translation module functions and create new lua module

docs/changelog.txt

@@ -76,14 +76,16 @@ Template for new versions:
 ## API
 - ``Units::isUnitInBox``, ``Units::getUnitsInBox``: add versions accepting pos arguments
 - ``Units::getVisibleName``: when acting on a unit without an impersonated identity, returns the unit's name structure instead of the associated histfig's name structure
-- ``Translation::GenerateName``: generates in-game names, mirroring DF's internal logic
+- ``Translation::generateName``: generates in-game names, mirroring DF's internal logic
 
 ## Lua
 - ``dfhack.units.isUnitInBox``, ``dfhack.units.getUnitsInBox``: add versions accepting pos arguments
 - ``widgets.FilteredList``: search keys for list items can now be functions that return a string
-- ``dfhack.GenerateName``: Lua API for ``Translation::GenerateName``
+- ``dfhack.translation.generateName``: Lua API for ``Translation::generateName``
 
 ## Removed
+- ``dfhack.TranslateName`` has been renamed to ``dfhack.translation.translateName``
+- ``Translation::TranslateName`` has been renamed to ``Translation::translateName``
 
 ## Internals
 - Plugin command callbacks are now called with the core suspended by default so DF memory is always safe to access without extra steps
