This is an experiment to see what is required to consolodate all of the myriad {{lang-xx}} templates
and their subtemplates into a single module with a data table
{{lang-es}} has parameters:
{{{1}}} text - required
{{{link}}} or {{{links}}} defaults to 'yes'
{{{lit}}} literal translation
{{language with name}} has parameters:
{{{1}}} iso language code - required
{{{2}}} language name in English - superfluous?
{{{3}}} text - required
{{{4}}} or {{{lit}}} literal translation
{{{link}}} or {{{links}}} set to 'no' disables '{{{2}} language' wikilinks
{{{rtl}}} passed through to {{lang}}
{{{nocat}}} passed through to {{lang}}
{{lang}} has parameters:
{{{1}}} iso language code - required
{{{2}}} text - required
{{{rtl}}} if set to any value, set dir="rtl" attribute and inserts ‎ after the </span> tag
{{{nocat}}} if set to any value, disables categorization
How it works now:
1. {{lang-es}} receives text as {{{1}}} to which it adds italic markup, sets |links to {{{link}}} or {{{links}}} or yes, sets |lit to {{{lit}}}, and calls {{language with name}}. {{{rtl}}} ignored for this example
2. {{language with name}} renders [[Spanish language|Spanish]] ({{{links}}} not set) or Spanish ({{{links}}} set) and calls {{lang}}
3. {{lang}} wraps the text in the <span lang="es">text</span> and adds categorization

extracts and returns IETF language tag parts:
primary language subtag (required) - 2 or 3 character lower case IANA language code [ll]
script subtag - four character title-case IANA script code [Ssss]
region subtag - two-character upper-case IANA region code [RR]
in any one of these forms
ll (or lll)
ll-Ssss
ll-RR
ll-Ssss-RR
each of ll, Ssss, and RR when used must be valid
returns three values. Valid parts are return as themselves; omitted parts are returned as empty strings, invalid
parts are returned as nil.

The value |script= is not used in {{transl}} for this purpose; instead it uses |code. Because language scripts
are listed in the {{transl}} switches they are included in the data tables. The script parameter is introduced
at {{Language with name and transliteration}}. If |script= is set, this function uses it in preference to code.
