Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
DeepL Translation can be very limiting with their API, and it requires a credit card to even get a free API key. For a free API key, you only get 500,000 characters per month.

Describe the solution you'd like
I propse a new translation extension using Google Translate. I know Google Translate API costs money as well, but there is a way to use the API for free.
You can read more here: ssut/py-googletrans#268
But basically, there is a public endpoint from Google which allows you to translate anything for free.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Of course you can just make an API key for DeepL; but some people do not want to give their credit card information to DeepL and I feel like this would be an awesome feature to consider.

Additional context
You can find additional context in the link I sent above which describes how to use the API and the query parameters.
