locales: Remove two more aliases (ja_JP.eucjp and en_US.ISO-8859-1)

There was an earlier effort to define common locales (arising from
Linux's case-and-hyphen insensitivity) and they were going to be
removed when our locale handling followed Linux behavior, but it was
decided that we would and should not follow Linux's example.

Since then and through collaborative discussions with FreeBSD, it
was decided these common-but-incorrect-for-BSD aliases should not
continue. FreeBSD will never get them and I'm removing ours.

In retrospect, having an alias for UTF-8 does not bring any real benefits

European countries that use -15, change the default from UTF-8
to ISO8859-15. Do not bring in -4 or -13.
en_IE: Ireland only had UTF-8. To be uniform with the UK and Western
Europe, bring in ISO8859-15 and set that as the alias for the
shortname. Do not bring in -1.

locales: Switch several shortnames away from ISO-8859-1

For all western European countries that have their short names aliased
to ISO-8859-1, this is against POLA. Once the decision to not use UTF-8
is made, the short names should be linked to ISO-8859-15, the one with
the Euro symbol and other common characters that ISO-8859-1 lacks.

While here, change en_PH to UTF-8 since the Peso sign can't be represented
and do the same for Costa Rica and it's Colon currency.

We're in the process of thinking hard about locale symlinks. These
new ISO-8859-15@euro symlinks (to their ISO8859-15 counterparts) were
a bad idea that I copied from Linuxland. Let's reverse this before it
gets released in DragonFly.

It doesn't even make sense. @euro is basically shorthand for ISO8859-15,
so what value does it have to "modify" that encoding? Stop the Linuxanity
now ...

From research, it appears that the default for territory-only locales
(e.g. en_US, de_DE) is to use ISO-8859-X (where X is not 15). The
@euro modifier is the alias for ISO-8859-15.

Since there is no apparent standard, I am going to switch the defaults
from aliasing to UTF-8 to ISO-8859 where available. For the non-latin
character sets, I left these at UTF-8 rather than try to decide on a
different default.

Incidentally, this enables a number of gcc libstdc++ tests to pass as
well.

Move some locales before upcoming overhauls

Several locales are obsolete and have misleading names. This moves
many of them at once. An entry to the UPDATING files notifies what
the new locale options are for users of affected locales.

This is necessary because the upcoming locale updates are going to be
generated and we can avoid carrying ancient aliases over. Also note
that Serbia's change may not be complete until the entire locales are
updated.

Remove no_NO (only use nb_NO and nn_NO)

There are only two variations of Norwegian: Bokmål or nynorsk, both of
which are equally official. These are established by law and governmental
policy: Bokmål (literally "book language") and Nynorsk (literally "new
Norwegian"). The Norwegian Language Council recommends the terms
"Newegian Bokmål" and "Norwegian Nynorsk" in English.

The no_NO variant is a holdover from when nb_NO and nn_NO were created.
In glibc, the old no_NO was kept as an alias to nb_NO. This option is
considered confusing and probably should have been removed years ago.

locales: Add 66 "@euro" symlinks, and UTF8 alias

While not documented, it appears that modifiers work. The only widely
used modifier is "@euro" which is an alias for ISO 8859-15 coded which
contains the Euro currently along with 7 other new symbols as compared
to ISO 8859-1. For all 33 localization sets that use la_LN.ISO8859-15
for LC_CTYPE, I'm creating an @euro and .ISO-8859-15@euro symlink to
them. These are still found on Linux and the .ISO-8859* extension is
the chosen linux format (this is unfortanately not standardized thus
BSD and Linux differ). Thus any use of @euro will probably also refer
to the Linux format and that's why I chose it.

For the same reason, .UTF8 versions (Linux) are being symlinked to
DragonFly's .UTF-8 versions. Symlinks are cheap.

Create short name locales

In other (non-BSD?) platforms, it's possible to use a locale such as
"en_GB". Up until now, this did not work on DragonFly. It required
a codeset as well, so if "en_GB.UTF-8" wasn't specified, setlocale
would fail.

Every locale except two has a version that uses the UTF-8 codeset,
so a symlink was created to these to create these territory locales.
The other two are
hi_IN => hi_IN.ISCII-DEV
la_LN => la_LN.ISO8859-1

This should improve cross-platform compatibility, and it will lead
to a change in gcc50 libstdc++ locale handling.

While here, set the "share" directory to build in parallel rather
than serially.
