I've applied this change.
Now, apertium-eng generates two different generation files: eng.autogen.bin
and eng_US.autogen.bin. The first one generates "British English", while
the second one generates "American English". There is only one analyzer,
that analyzes both variants.
That will allow all language pairs using English to analyze all English
variants at no cost (no need to add more than once the same entry in the
bidix (i.e. colour/color). And it's up to the language developers if they
want to support one or more variants when generating.
Only a few words have been added to the right variant, so there is still
work to do, but the foundation is there.
