Subject: [PATCH] locale-util: add new helper locale_is_installed()

This new helper checks whether the specified locale is installed. It's
distinct from locale_is_valid() which just superficially checks if a
string looks like something that could be a valid locale.

Heavily inspired by @jsynacek's #13964.

Replaces: #13964
(cherry picked from commit 23fa786ca67ed3a32930ff1a7b175ac823db187c)

Related: #1755287
