These comments are useless and only confusing. The encodings used to
create binary locales from source locales are listed in the
localedata/SUPPORTED file. The source files itself are ASCII or UTF-8
encoded where non-ASCII UTF-8 is currently only used in comments. If
all locale source files are UTF-8 anyway, there is no need to specify
that in a special comment.
The ISO 30112 standard defines the valid values for the category
keyword as only a few options:
posix:1993
i18n:2004
i18n:2012
The vast majority of locales had changed the "i18n" string to the
name of its own locale (e.g. "ak_GH:2013") as well as tweaking the
date (presumably thinking it should be the date of submission).
Convert all of them to "i18n:2012" for consistency. A follow up
change will update localedef to actually check/validate the field.
This updates a bunch of locales based on CLDR v29 data:
bg_BG: changing Bulgaria to България
bo_CN: changing ཀྲུང་ཧྭ་མི་དམངས་སྤྱི་མཐུན་རྒྱལ་ཁབ། to རྒྱ་ནག
bo_IN: changing རྒྱ་གར to རྒྱ་གར་
cy_GB: changing Cymru to Y Deyrnas Unedig
dz_BT: changing འབྲུག། to འབྲུག
en_US: changing USA to United States
es_US: changing USA to Estados Unidos
gd_GB: changing Breatainn Mhòr to An Rìoghachd Aonaichte
ha_NG: changing Nigeria to Najeriya
mk_MK: changing Macedonia to Македонија
mn_MN: changing Mongolia to Монгол
sq_MK: changing Macedonia to Maqedoni
sr_RS@latin: changing Srbija i Crna Gora to Srbija
tr_CY: changing Northern Cyprus to Kıbrıs
tr_TR: changing Turkey to Türkiye
ug_CN: changing 中华人民共和国 to جۇڭگو
uz_UZ: changing O'zbekistan to Oʻzbekiston
vi_VN: changing Việt nam to Việt Nam
wae_CH: changing Switzerland to Schwiz
yi_US: changing די פֿאראײניקטע שטאַטן to פֿאַראייניגטע שטאַטן
yo_NG: changing Nigeria to Orílẹ́ède Nàìjíríà
yue_HK: changing 香港 to 中華人民共和國香港特別行政區
zu_ZA: changing Mzansi Afrika to i-South Africa
These all look largely straightforward. Many had English translations
instead of native, and a few have been updated. I can't verify some of
them as I'm not personally familiar, but the CLDR data matches.
The USA->United States seems a little odd, but that is also what the
CLDR database uses everywhere (rather than "United States of America").
We can also fill in a country name where there wasn't one before.
Many look correct to me (mostly the English ones), but there's also
many that I have no idea. But it can't be worse than leaving it
blank ? :)

This updates a few locales based on CLDR v29 data.
Add missing fields:
as_IN: changing to 356
dv_MV: changing to 462
kk_KZ: changing to 398
my_MM: changing to 104
rw_RW: changing to 646
tt_RU: changing to 643
Update ones that are wrong:
dz_BT: changing BHU to 064
en_PH: changing 360 to 608
km_KH: changing 418 to 116
ky_KG: changing 643 to 417
tr_CY: changing 792 to 196
wo_SN: changing 450 to 686
As a result of fixing these, I had to update country_ab[23]:
dz_BT: changing BHU to BTN
en_PH: changing ID/IDN to PH/PHL
km_KH: changing LA/LAO to KH/KHM
ky_KG: changing KY/KYR to KG/KGZ
tr_CY: changing TR/TUR to CY/CYP
wo_SN: changing MG/MDG to SN/SEN
Pad with leading zeros to match the standard and other locales:
ber_DZ: changing 12 to 012
ca_AD: changing 20 to 020
en_AG: changing 28 to 028
hy_AM: changing 51 to 051
li_BE: changing 56 to 056
wa_BE: changing 56 to 056
I hand checked the first two sets against ISO 3166-1 directly.
There are only two measurement systems that locales use: US and metric.
For the former, move to copying the en_US locale, while for the latter,
move to copying the i18n locale. This lets us clean up all the stray
comments like FIXME.
There should be no functional differences here.
