* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Add a localechooser-data package containing lists useful for packages
    that create automatic installation scripts.
  - Always support English, unless preseeded otherwise.
  - Drop fallbacks for Norwegian Bokmål and Nynorsk.
  - Simplify use of locale-gen using the new command-line argument
    facility in Ubuntu's locales package.
  - Add encoding field to languagelist file and use the full SUPPORTED
    file rather than SUPPORTED-short.
  - If the language question was already marked as seen and the answer
    didn't change, then don't recalculate the locale.
  - If OVERRIDE_SHOW_ALL_LANGUAGES is set in the environment, display all
    languages regardless of frontend.

Make sure /target/etc/default exists before creating
/target/etc/default/locale (LP: #491198).

mktemplates.shortlist sometimes seems to hang in "sed -e 's/,/\\\\,/'"
when running in a UTF-8 locale. Work around this by forcing LC_ALL=C,
which we need to be able to operate in anyway for buildds.

Don't add en_US.UTF-8 to the supported language pack set if the locale
is set to C; this is probably fine by people using the C locale, and it
means that lowmem installations avoid installing language-pack-en and
thereby calling localedef lots of times.

  - Install kbd rather than console-tools. Remove configuration file
    changes that: (a) modify a dpkg-handled conffile and so are policy
    violations; (b) are partly composed of workarounds for console-tools
    bugs not present in kbd; (c) are superseded by console-setup anyway.
