--[=[
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 &lrm; 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

Makes a wikilink; when both link and display text is provided, returns a wikilink in the form [[L|D]]; if only

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.
