I've corrected misnamed terminology for the VRChat currency across the codebase. VRChat's currency is called "VRChat Credits", not V-Bucks. V-Bucks are a registered trademark of Epic Games.

These changes were applied both to user-facing UI as well as internal variable names.

I provided localization for languages that were using the English string "V-Bucks". Please feel free to criticize these -- I utilized a combination of GPT, DeepL, and Google Translate to come to and confirm a "best effort" conclusion.

Any localization that had existing translations that were determined to be derived from "VRChat Credits" (via aforementioned MTL services) were untouched.

A test build passed smoke tests without issue. @Natsumi-sama , thanks for correcting a dumb mistake I made!
