The installer crashes because the "tok" language is not included in our
old version of the iso-codes package.

Upgrading it to 4.16.0 should fix it, but it is unclear whether this
would result in mass rebuilds.  There is iso-codes/official and a
derived iso-codes.  GTK+ uses iso-codes/official with a note to switch
to iso-codes on "core-updates".  So this change would likely cause mass
rebuilds via the gtk+ package.

Pushed:

  e076b8b884 installer: Use the latest ‘iso-codes’.
  2ae666c471 gnu: Add iso-codes.
  8e5c8303a4 gnu: iso-codes: Rename to iso-codes/pinned.

I tweaked the commit logs and added a comment in ‘installer.scm’ about
the choice of the ‘iso-codes’ version.

Thank you!

Ludo’.
