We already have "Northern Sotho" in the language list, ISO 639-2 'nso'.

In Weblate https://translations.documentfoundation.org/languages/nso/

Its actual standard name seems to be Pedi
https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/nso
but everywhere else named Northern Sotho (except in Weblate ;-)

In the language list we may want to rename

Northern Sotho -> Sotho, Northern
Southern Sotho -> Sotho, Southern

so they are grouped together when alphabetically sorted.
