We have 2 for the above the Cyrl version and the Latn version

We can make aliases easily for that is that is what people want, not the we have
the same for other locales:

zh_Hans_CN.GB18030
zh_Hans_CN.GB2312
zh_Hans_CN.GBK
zh_Hans_CN.UTF-8
zh_Hans_CN.eucCN
zh_Hant_HK.UTF-8
zh_Hant_TW.Big5
zh_Hant_TW.UTF-8

With some aliases for some of the previously existing ones:
zh_TW.Big5
zh_TW.UTF-8
zh_CN.GB18030
zh_CN.GB2312
zh_CN.GBK
zh_CN.UTF-8
zh_CN.eucCN
zh_HK.UTF-8

Some of the new locales (that didn't exist before) I have only imported the new
name format:
kk_Cyrl_KZ.UTF-8
mn_Cyrl_MN.UTF-8
sr_Cyrl_RS.ISO8859-5
sr_Cyrl_RS.UTF-8
sr_Latn_RS.ISO8859-2
sr_Latn_RS.UTF-8

I would prefer staying on the new syntax given it is allowed by some RFC and it
is slowly being adopted everywhere else.

Btw another RFC: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5646.txt
