Sort a list of language codes or map with languages on their localized name in the currently selected language. This is useful for editorial interfaces where editors pick a language from a list.

Do not use for end-users wanting to select their own language, they might not be able to understand the translated language names.

Return a list of `{Code, LanguageProps}` pairs.

LanguageProps is a map:

```erlang
#{
    fallback => [],
    language => <<"nl">>,
    language_atom => nl,
    name => <<"Nederlands">>,
    name_en => <<"Dutch">>,
    sort_key => <<"dutch">>,
    sublanguages => [
    ]
}
```

After sorting the key `name_localized` will be added to the map:

```erlang
#{
    fallback => [],
    language => <<"nl">>,
    language_atom => nl,
    name => <<"Nederlands">>,
    name_en => <<"Dutch">>,
    name_localized => <<"Nederländska"/utf8>>,
    sort_key => <<"dutch">>,
    sublanguages => [
    ]
}
```
