We have errmsg_internal(), errdetail_internal(), but not errhint_internal().
Sometimes it is useful to output a hint with already translated format
string (e.g. because there different messages depending on the condition). For
message/detail we do that with the _internal() variants, but we can't do that
with hint today. It's possible to work around that that by using something
like
str = psprintf(translated_format, args);
ereport(...
errhint("%s", str);
but that's not exactly pretty and makes it harder to avoid memory leaks.
