Subject: [PATCH] Fix UI language switching bug (#21597) (#21748)

Backport #21597

Related:
* https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/21596#issuecomment-1291450224

There was a bug when switching language by AJAX: the irrelevant POST
requests were processed by the target page's handler.

Now, use GET instead of POST. The GET requests should be harmless.
