[Bug 1970277] [NEW] "Maori" language option should be "Māori" or "Te Reo Māori"

 

Public bug reported:

The new language pack management section was created in this patch:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1884717

The option for te reo Māori currently just says "Maori" - this is
missing the macron over the a, and should also really say "Te Reo Māori"
(imo)

1. Admin>Development>Languages
2. Open "Add language" menu

Expected:
 - see the option "Te Reo Māori" or at least "Māori" (with macron)

Actual:
 - option is "Maori"

Brief chat in the Catalyst 'kōrero' channel:
"For me, Te Reo Māori"
"I don't think I'd care although 'Te Reo Māori' is the language"
"I'm used to seeing "Te Reo Māori" or even just "Te Reo""
"Google only uses Māori
the word language is already in the selection label?
Imho what also influences this is whether you write the language names in their language or in English"
