    Issue #7386: fix languages non-provided by InnoSetup showing as English.
    
    The language files provided by the InnoSetup project (either the main
    ones or the "Unofficial" ones, i.e. less maintained ones) at least
    provides the name of the language, possibly in English, ideally
    self-localized in its own language.
    
    Unfortunately Kabyle didn't have any language file so we were using the
    Default one, which ended up showing the lang as a duplicate (and very
    wrong) "English".
    
    With this commit, I add code to provide our own very basic base language
    file, which would at least contain the language name. There is also a
    concept of language ID to be verified in Windows-provided list.
    Unfortunately it doesn't have any (actually it was id-ed 0x1000 like
    many other languages, which looked therefore to be the code for an
    unsupported lang). InnoSetup docs tells us to leave 0 then. We can add
    the ability to set a specific code later in the template if we add other
    un-provided languages and if they have their own lang id.
    
    With this base infrastructure, we should be able to better support more
    languages.
