i18n: avoid parenthesized string as array initializer

The syntax

    static const char ignore_error[] = ("something");

is invalid C.  A parenthesized string is not allowed as an array
initializer.

Some compilers, for example GCC and MSVC, allow this syntax as an
extension, but it is not a portable construct.  tcc does not parse it, for
example.

Remove the parenthesis from the definition of the N_() macro to
fix this.
