MODULE "MLILI" (lingvokodo ligilo)

"eo.wiktionary.org/wiki/Modulo:mlili" <!--2024-Oct-10-->

Purpose: converts langcode to langname (with some bonus features) and
         optionally brews a link according to one of many available types

Utilo: konvertas lingvokodon al lingvomono (kun kelkaj bonusaj funkcioj)
       kaj opcie kreas ligilon laux unu inter multaj disponeblaj tipoj

Manfaat: mengonversi kode bahasa ke nama bahasa (dengan beberapa fungsi
         tambah) dan ...

Syfte: konverterar spraakkod till spraaknamn (med naagra extrafunktioner)
       och ...

Used by templates / Uzata far sxablonoj:
* only "lili" (not to be called from any other place)

Required submodules / Bezonataj submoduloj /
Submodul yang diperlukan / Behoevda submoduler:
* "loaddata-tbllingvoj" T76 in turn requiring template "tbllingvoj" (EO)
* "loaddata-tblbahasa" T76 in turn requiring template "tblbahasa" (ID)

This module can accept parameters whether sent to itself (own frame) or
to the caller (caller's frame). If there is a parameter "caller=true"
on the own frame then that own frame is discarded in favor of the
caller's one. Empty parameters and parameters longer than 160 octet:s
(except "noc=") are inherently invalid (#E09), further checks follow.

Parameters: * 1 anonymous obligatory parameter
              * langcode ("??" permitted)                                       !!!FIXME!!!
            * 0...9 named optional parameters
              - "tip=" - base type of output or link, 3 possible values: "LA",
                         "LK" (visible link to category), "KE" (cat insertion,
                         adding page into category), default is "raw" plain
                         text no link
              - "nem=" - one possible value: "1", avoid wall in the link,
                         show it plain and honest, default is wall with type
                         "LA" or "LK" but not with "KE", only legal with
                         base type "LA" or "LK" (otherwise error), not
                         together with "mon=" or "maj=1" (otherwise error)
              - "mon=" - type of langname, 5 possible values: "la" (add
                         "la" if appropriate), "aj" (brew adjective), "sf"
                         ("senfinajxa" ie without ending for example "kore",
                         does not work with all languages), "av" (brew adverb,
                         if one word then this is "mon=" type "sf" plus "e",
                         else this is string "en" plus space + "mon=" type
                         "la"), "pl" (brew plural adjective, works for sane
                         multiword langnames too), default is native ie
                         SB or AJ and no "la", only legal with base type
                         "LA" or "LK" or "raw" (otherwise error), not together
                         with "nem=1" or "prf=" (otherwise error)
              - "maj=" - one possible value: "1", force begin uppercase,
                         default false ie native case for "mon=" types native
                         and "la", and lowercase for "mon=" types "aj" "sf"
                         "av", only legal with base type "LA" or "LK" or
                         "raw" (otherwise error), not together
                         with "nem=1" (otherwise error)
              - "hin=" - string (2...80 octet:s), name of category, language
                         name will become the sorting hint/key all lowercase
                         and without spaces and dashes, name of category
                         is fixed, default no hint, only legal with base
                         type "KE" (otherwise error), not together with
                         "prf=" (otherwise error)
              - "prf=" - string (2...80 octet:s), add prefix before language
                         name and brackets, default no prefix, only legal with
                         base type "LA" or "LK" or "KE" (otherwise error), not
                         together with "mon=" or "hin=" (otherwise error)
              - "noc=" - one possible value: "true" (any other value ignored),    !!!FIXME!!! obsolete
                         "true" causes empty result with "KE" ie suppresses
                         categorization, only useful with base type "KE"
                         (otherwise ignored), forward "nocat=" to this
                         one if desired
              - "per=" - one possible value: "1", keep link or category if
                         langcode is bad (obviously invalid or unknown),
                         default is off and means to switch base type
                         of task "LA" or "LK" to type "raw", base
                         type "KE" to empty result, only legal with
                         base type "LA" or "LK" or "KE" (otherwise error)
              - "err=" - string (2...80 octet:s), common placeholder, by
                         default the errors are "evidente nevalida lingvokodo"
                         and "nekonata lingvokodo"

* parameter "noc=" cannot cause an error
* parameters "mon=" "maj=1" and on the other side "hin=" indirectly exclude
  each other absolutely via the base type
* for base type "KE" the language can be in the cat insertion target or
  in the hint, but not in both
* for types "LA" and "LK" the language can be in the single common field
  (with "nem=1"), or in both, but separately processed ("mon=" and "maj=1
  affect only the visible part)
* wikilink target or category name for "LA" "LK" "KE" always gets
  uppercase beginning letter
* sorting hint/key is always converted to lowercase (all letters) and junk
  char:s (particularly spaces and dashes) are removed
* if langcode is bad (obviously invalid or unknown) then by default
  both "tip=" and "mon=" are force-switched to default values "raw" and
  "native", yet with "per=1" the result is constructed with "tip="
  unaffected but "mon=" still force-switched to "native"

Returned: * one moderately long string with raw name or link, can be empty
            in some cases, or red error message

This module is unbreakable (when called with correct module name
and function name). Every imaginable input from the caller and
from the imported modules will output either a useful result or
at least a helpful error string.

Following errors are possible:
* <<#E01 Internal error in module "mlili">>
  Possible causes:
  * strings not uncommented
* <<#E02 Malica eraro en subprogramaro uzata far sxablono "lili">>
  Possible causes:
  * submodule not found
  * submodule caused unspecified failure
* <<#E03 Nombrigita eraro en subprogramaro uzata far sxablono "lili">>
  Possible causes:
  * submodule failed and returned valid error code
* <<#E08 Erara uzo de sxablono "lili", legu gxian dokumentajxon>>
  Possible causes (early detected obvious problems with parameters):
  * one obligatory anonymous parameter missing
  * more than one anonymous parameter supplied
* <<#E09>>
  * empty parameters or parameters longer than 160 octet:s (except for "noc=")
* <<#E14 Nevalida baza tipo "tip=" en sxablono "lili">>
* <<#E15 Nevalida signocxeno "hin=" "prf=" "err=" en sxablono "lili">>
  Possible causes:
  * string length out of range (2...80 octet:s)
* <<#E16 Erara uzo de sxablono "lili" pro parametroj>>
  Possible causes (later detected more clandestine problems with parameters):
  * bad value of a single parameter not caught by #E09 #E14 #E15
  * conflicting parameters
Note that obviously invalid or unknown langcode is NOT an error here.
