[pve-devel] minor french translation correction

[Luc Milland]

Hi,

I was about to second the choice of "souscription", but something does 
not fit : in french, a subscription has no validity status per se.

Maybe "abonnement" would be better then, as it widely used for all kind 
of services subscriptions (phone, dsl, ...).

cheers,
Luc
