1367616 - Asturian is displayed using current locale (or ast when Asturian is the current locale)

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Locale switching and selection, enhancement)

Description

[Andrzej Hunt :ahunt]

See the equivalent focus bug:
https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/issues/634#issuecomment-303886118

Android uses an ICU version without Asturian in it, hence we aren't able to display the Asturian localised name for Asturian (which I believe is "Asturianu"). Instead the locale picker displays the localised name for Asturian in whatever the current fennec locale is, or "Ast" if the current locale is Asturian.

Here's a draft patch that fixes the issue in Focus (LocaleListPreference has been imported directly from Fennec, hence this same fix is applicable for fennec).

ahunt, did you forget to attach the patch?

I'm happy to review.

Sorry, I forgot to post the link. Here's the version that landed in Focus, I'll try to port it to Fennec as soon as I have a checkout and build of Fennec again - I'm keeping the NI in the meantime as a reminder:
