Most of the activity in translatewiki, Wikidata,
and Incubator is in the Tai Tham script, so set nod
to that. But there are also people who want to use
the Thai script, so allow it, too.
This also adds support for the Tai Tham script
(ISO 15924 Lana).

Aghem autonym according to Ethnologue. I can find several
variants online, and this looks like the most reliable.
Masana autonym according to
"Dictionnaire Masa-Français, Dialectes Gumay et Ɦaara (Tchad)"
by Melis Antonino
The name "gurenɛ" is used only in Ghana and refers only
to one dialect. This language is also spoken in Burkina Faso,
and the name "farefare" covers all the dialects in both
countries. The activity in this language in translatewiki.net
and in the Wikimedia Incubator is higher recently, and this
was requested by the contributors to this language.
Confirmed with the book
De la phonologie à l’orthographe : Le ninkãrɛ au Burkina Faso,
Idda et Urs Niggli SIL, 2007
(page 6).
A translatewiki translator said that this ojb the more
appropriate code for the existing translations, so it has
to be added. The code ciw is valid, too, so it's preserved.
The name "Ojibwemowin" is more appropriate for ojb, and
ciw is now named "Anishinaabemowin".
I also confirmed this with another Ojibwe language teacher.

Autonym according to:
Х.ГӀ. Юсупов, «Даргала-урусла словарь», ХӀ. ЦӀадасала уличилси
Мезла, литературала ва искусствола институт, МяхIячкъала 2014
and verified with speakers.
The name "Wayúu" appeared a long time ago in translatewiki,
and it's unclear what is its source. All the sources that I can
find say that autonym is "wayuunaiki", for example Ethnologue and
Diccionario básico ilustrado wayuunaiki-español español-wayuunaiki
(Editorial Fundación para el Desarrollo de los Pueblos Marginados, Bogotá, D.C., 2005)
In the years that have passed since I wrote a comment saying
that this language is "complicated", I found sources that clearly
show that the primary alphabet for this language now is Latin.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talysh_language#Scripts
MediaWiki's Names.php was updated, too.
This language is known in English as Shilha, Tashelhit,
Tachelhit, and also by some other names.
The most authoritative modern name in the language itself
is Taclḥit, with the letter c. It appears in the textbook
"Méthode de tachelhit, langue amazighe (berbère) du sud du Maroc"
by Abdallah El Mountassir and also in the online
"Dictionnaire Général de la Langue Amazighe Informatisé"
( https://tal.ircam.ma/dglai/lexieam.php ). It also directly
corresponds to the spelling in the Tifinagh script.
This change was requested by the localizers in translatewiki
and authors in the Wikipedia Incubator in this language.
They appear in translatewiki's local configuration,
but not here in language-data. The data about all of these
is stable enough to be here.

Updated more conservatively by Amir E. Aharoni.
This is probably a transition to allow the splitting
to two variants. "cdo" will be reconfigured later
once the transition in other MediaWiki-related
properties will be over.

Other Chavacano varieties don't have codes. The have very few speakers,
and aren't expected to be used distinctly. In such cases we usually
redirect the specific code to a general standard code.

Requested by the speakers. "alt" is the main literary language,
so it's called just "Altai", and the word "language" is necessary,
similarly to how it's done in the related Sakha and Tuvan languages.
This is needed for better support of the Wikipedia Incubator
( https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/mad )
and translatewiki.
Autonym spelling according to this dictionary:
Adrian Pawitra, "Kamus lengkap bahasa madura—indonesia"
(The title is in Indonesian and hence spelled differently.)
