Add Chinese Version distributed wikipedia mirror.

Thanks for all of maintainers, you did an excellent job for promoting spread of human knowledge.
And I'm here to ask could you add a Chinese version Wikipedia mirror on IPFS?
China, like Turkey, had interfered and blocked Wikipedia for years (since 2004) and China also has one of the most tight internet censorship in World. Thus, If we can have a decentralized and distributed wikipedia in China, I trust it's a great opportunity to introduce IPFS and the feature of decentralized and anti-censorship web.

We def. want to have more languages, but the cost of creating a new snapshot is quite high right now.

Need to fix #73 or #42 to unblock this, but I suggest waiting for the latter, as it will be easier to update every month.

Thanks for replaying. I'm looking for it.

Really supportive for that one.

For now, I deployed a mirror(wikipedia_zh_all_maxi_2021-01)
CID: bafybeierrdxblmthjga6wap3tpk53icgzb7owstz5gbd6qxcy3kspktymm
IPNS: k51qzi5uqu5dirl3inwnhrl6nicsaq9snlzg2aj7blt2komssvff4c9ln8tch3
It's not an official mirror, so I will keep this issue open and wait for #42 to close.
Anyway, @lidel and @kelson42 Thanks for your help. 🎉
