Changed to Spanish name

Bug Description

The ISO standard says that the language "es" is named: "Spanish (Castilian)" but
that looks ugly, we need only one name, not both, the most know one is "Spanish"
so, please, could we update it in our iso-codes package (it affects to Rosetta)?

I filed a bug report upstream:

It seems that iso-codes should follow the ISO standard, given its name and
purpose. If that name is not suitable for display, perhaps there should be an
intermediate mapping from ISO names to display names?

Well, the fact is the iso standard gives you two different names for "es"
language, I'm asking to just choose one of them, I'm not asking to change the name.

This change was done upstream and it's now part of the hoary packages.
