           Summary: Add a few language codes for Slavic auxiliary zonal
                    languages
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All

Description:
First of all, thanks for looking into this!

As a member of Interslavic (constructed language) volunteer programmer team,
I’d like to inquire, whether you could assist with adding a few reserved codes
for pan-Slavic languages? According to the BCP47 notation, we’d fit best at
“sla-Latn”, “sla-Cyrl” language tags (since Interslavic has two alphabets:
Latin and Cyrillic). That would be optimal for our current use case, since
Interslavic doesn’t have (yet) an assigned ISO-639-3 code, although I'd note it
already has received its code on Glottolog
(https://glottolog.org/resource/languoid/id/inte1263).

The context is the following. We’ve got a Hunspell dictionary in works
(https://github.com/medzuslovjansky/dictionary-hunspell), and it is quite close
to the first beta release, and we’d like to ship also it as a LibreOffice
extension. In the worst case, we could have used one of Serbian locales,
probably, but it does not feel like the most optimal solution anyway - Serbian
users of Interslavic spell checker would be pressed to drop their native
language spell checker.

What could you advise in our case?
Again, thanks a lot for your time! We’d be happy to hear from you back!

Steps to Reproduce:
Open "Language" picker in the Character dialog.

Actual Results:
You don't see "Slavic (Latin)" and "Slavic (Cyrillic)" options.

Expected Results:
I'd like to see "Slavic (Latin)" and "Slavic (Cyrillic)".


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
According to:
https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/master/include/i18nlangtag/lang.h

I can't find anything similar to generic Slavic language codes, so I guess this
issue was and is valid from the very beginning.
