It would be nice if FFmpeg could have some concept of locale; for example,
in Matroska, geographical region and writing script metadata can coexist
with the language code using LanguageBCP47 element (think "en-US", "fr-FR").

This is particularly useful to distinguish between streams with same
language but regional variations, or endangered/diaspora dialects that
are good to have identified.

This patch set introduces the concept by adding support for the element
in the Matroska demuxer. There are Matroska muxers that do set the data.
