thornet: reported on IRC that there are missing text on the page and when clicking on any of the link it will redirect her to a 404 because of the link is broken. :humph and I investigate the issue and I have come to a conclusion that we should support both locale version because for some user if the request page the accept-language was 'en' the header would be set to 'en_US' which will result of string requested not found in i18n-abide. Adding support both version will solve this problem.

One question I have is where in the chain it went from `en` to `en_US`? The l10n-abide module knows about lang and locale and can convert between the two, see https://github.com/mozilla/i18n-abide/blob/master/lib/i18n.js#L318-L363. What goes in the <html lang="xx"> attribute should be a language (en-US) and not a locale (en_US).
