Watchlist emails should be sent in the user's language

Description

Currently, watchlist emails (i.e. MediaWiki:Enotif body) are sent in the wiki's default language.

It would be better if they were sent in the user's preferred language, like Echo emails.

This is not a regression because the code explicitly and willingly uses the messages in the content language, but I doubt this is still needed (IIRC the purpose originally was to avoid re-creating the email content for each user/language).
