* Define language types.

* An associative array of language type definitions. The keys are the
* identifiers, which are also used as names for global variables representing
* the types in the bootstrap phase. The values are associative arrays that
* may contain the following elements:
* - name: The human-readable language type identifier.
* - description: A description of the language type.
* - locked: A boolean indicating if the user can choose whether to configure
* the language type or not using the UI.
* - fixed: A fixed array of language negotiation method identifiers to use to
* initialize this language. If locked is set to TRUE and fixed is set, it
* will always use the specified methods in the given priority order. If not
* present and locked is TRUE then language-interface will be
* used.
*
* @todo Rename the 'fixed' key to something more meaningful, for instance
* 'negotiation settings'. See https://www.drupal.org/node/2166879.
