    /**
     * Identifies user agent language from the Accept-language HTTP header.
     *
     * The algorithm works as follows:
     * - map user agent language codes to available language codes.
     * - order all user agent language codes by qvalue from high to low.
     * - add generic user agent language codes if they aren't already specified
     *   but with a slightly lower qvalue.
     * - find the most specific available language code with the highest qvalue.
     * - if 2 or more languages are having the same qvalue, respect the order of
     *   them inside the $languages array.
     *
     * We perform user agent accept-language parsing only if page cache is
     * disabled, otherwise we would cache a user-specific preference.
     *
     * @param string $http_accept_language
     *   The value of the "Accept-Language" HTTP header.
     * @param array $langcodes
     *   An array of available language codes to pick from.
     * @param array $mappings
     *   (optional) Custom mappings to support user agents that are sending non
     *   standard language codes. No mapping is assumed by default.
     *
     * @return string
     *   The selected language code or FALSE if no valid language can be
     *   identified.
