Actually, this is wrong, isn't it?

strbuf_detach() removes the language_tags[i].buf from the strbuf,
and the caller now owns that piece of memory. Then strbuf_addstr()
appends a copy of that string to buf, and the piece of memory
that was originally held by language_tags[i].buf is now lost forever.

This is leaking.

... because this loop does not free memory for earlier parts of language_tags[].

And I think my counter-proposal does not leak (as it does not us strbuf for
language_tags[] anymore).
