 In summary:
 {{{
 >>> from django.utils.translation import to_locale
 >>> to_locale('en-us')
 'en_US'  # <- Fine
 >>> to_locale(to_locale('en-us'))
 'en_us'  # <- Bad
 }}}

 Typically, this breaks using e.g. `django.utils.translation.override` with
 a locale code like `pt_BR` or `zh_Hans`. of course, we could document that
 override takes a language code, not a locale code, but if we can support
 both without much effort, this would be a lot better.
