Adds custom, user-defined language to the database of known languages. This

wxLanguageInfo is defined as follows:
\begin{verbatim}

#ifdef __WIN32__

\membersection{wxLocale::GetCanonicalName}\label{wxlocalegetcanonicalname}
\constfunc{wxString}{GetSysName}{\void}
Returns the canonical form of current locale name. Canonical form is the
one that is used on UNIX systems: it is a two- or five-letter string in xx or
xx\_YY format, where xx is ISO 639 code of language and YY is ISO 3166 code of
the country. Examples are "en", "en\_GB", "en\_US" or "fr\_FR".
This form is internally used when looking up message catalogs.
