Bug Description

free command: in Italian header is misaligned and wrongly translated
gratuiti is 'for free' or 'gratis' or 'toll free'
'free' may be translated with 'liberi'

total = totali ... ok
used = usati ... ok
free = liberi ... to be changed
shared = condivisi ... ok
buff/cache ... ok
available = disponibili ... ok

corrado@corrado-n4-ll-beta:~$ free

@salvatorecocuzza I added two new suggestions on launchpad to the relevant strings. I noted that it was you that last touched those strings, according to LP.

Note that those two strings are not sentences, but rather part of a "table", describing memory usages (as such, I declined the word to feminine, "memoria liber_A_", etc).

I'm not clear about the alignment requirements here, but I reckon this already should be good enough.

In 22.04 the translation was better, it is the case to revert to that?

    enzotib@ubuntu-enzo:~$ free -m
                   totale utilizzato buff/cache condivisa libera disponibile
    Mem: 15670 7635 538 1138 7495 6561
    Swap: 31999 9 31990

    enzotib@ubuntu-enzo:~$ LC_ALL=C free -m
                   total used free shared buff/cache available
    Mem: 15670 7634 539 1138 7495 6561
    Swap: 31999 9 31990

Still "buff/cache" and "libera" should be exchanged, and the words should be right aligned with numbers.
Also use feminine for "utilizzato"

@mapreri I made the changes as you indicated, also accepting @enzotib proposals.
Words are now aligned correctly with numbers
