{% blocktrans %} tag raises KeyErrors while rendering

Description

Blocktrans allows variables to be nested inside of it; however, if one of those variables is not defined in the context, a KeyError will be raised during the render of the block node. Ex:

{% blocktrans %}{{ not_defined }}{% endblocktrans %}

This can be seen by using the manage.py shell:

>>> from django.template import Template, Context
 >>> t = Template("{% load i18n %}{% blocktrans %}{{ not_defined }}{% endblocktrans %}")
>>> c = Context()
>>> t.render(c)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File ".../django/template/base.py", line 123, in render
    return self._render(context)
  File ".../django/template/base.py", line 117, in _render
    return self.nodelist.render(context)
  File ".../django/template/base.py", line 744, in render
    bits.append(self.render_node(node, context))
  File ".../django/template/debug.py", line 73, in render_node
    result = node.render(context)
  File ".../django/templatetags/i18n.py", line 116, in render
    data = dict([(v, _render_value_in_context(context[v], context)) for v in vars])
  File ".../django/template/context.py", line 60, in __getitem__
    raise KeyError(key)
TemplateSyntaxError: Caught KeyError while rendering: not_defined
>>>

According to the docs, template tags should never raise errors during their render method. [1] My patch attempts to address this by adding the empty string as a failobj for each attempt to get a variable from the context. I'm not familiar with how exactly the internationalization framework works, so this may be an inappropriate way of handling things; however, no tests fail after adding the patch.
