--[[However "SupportedLanguages" are too restrictive, as they discard many
valid BCP47 script variants (only because MediaWiki still does not
define automatic transliterators for them, e.g. "en-dsrt" or
"fr-brai" for French transliteration in Braille), and country variants,
(useful in localized data, even if they are no longer used for
translations, such as zh-cn, also useful for legacy codes).
We want to avoid matching subpagenames containing any uppercase letter,
(even if they are considered valid in BCP 47, in which they are
case-insensitive; they are not "SupportedLanguages" for MediaWiki, so
they are not "KnownLanguageTags" for MediaWiki).
To be more restrictive, we exclude any character
* that is not ASCII and not a lowercase letter, minus-hyphen, or digit,
or does not start by a letter or does not finish by a letter or digit;
* or that has more than 8 characters between hyphens;
* or that has two hyphens;
* or with specific uses in template subpages and unusable as languages.
