/**
* @defgroup transliteration Transliteration
* @{
* Transliterate from Unicode to US-ASCII
*
* Transliteration is the process of translating individual non-US-ASCII
* characters into ASCII characters, which specifically does not transform
* non-printable and punctuation characters in any way. This process will always
* be both inexact and language-dependent. For instance, the character Ö (O with
* an umlaut) is commonly transliterated as O, but in German text, the
* convention would be to transliterate it as Oe or OE, depending on the context
* (beginning of a capitalized word, or in an all-capital letter context).
*
* The Drupal default transliteration process transliterates text character by
* character using a database of generic character transliterations and
* language-specific overrides. Character context (such as all-capitals
* vs. initial capital letter only) is not taken into account, and in
* transliterations of capital letters that result in two or more letters, by
* convention only the first is capitalized in the Drupal transliteration
* result. Also, only Unicode characters of 4 bytes or less can be
* transliterated in the base system; language-specific overrides can be made
* for longer Unicode characters. So, the process has limitations; however,
* since the reason for transliteration is typically to create machine names or
* file names, this should not really be a problem. After transliteration,
* other transformation or validation may be necessary, such as converting
* spaces to another character, removing non-printable characters,
* lower-casing, etc.
*
* Here is a code snippet to transliterate some text:
* @code
* // Use the current default interface language.
* $langcode = language(\Drupal\Core\Language\Language::TYPE_INTERFACE)->langcode;
* // Instantiate the transliteration class.
* $trans = drupal_container()->get('transliteration');
* // Use this to transliterate some text.
* $transformed = $trans->transliterate($string, $langcode);
* @endcode
*
* Drupal Core provides the generic transliteration character tables and
* overrides for a few common languages; modules can implement
* hook_transliteration_overrides_alter() to provide further language-specific
* overrides (including providing transliteration for Unicode characters that
* are longer than 4 bytes). Modules can also completely override the
* transliteration classes in \Drupal\Core\CoreBundle.
*/
/**
* Provide language-specific overrides for transliteration.
*
* If the overrides you want to provide are standard for your language, consider
* providing a patch for the Drupal Core transliteration system instead of using
* this hook. This hook can be used temporarily until Drupal Core's
* transliteration tables are fixed, or for sites that want to use a
* non-standard transliteration system.
*
* @param array $overrides
* Associative array of language-specific overrides whose keys are integer
* Unicode character codes, and whose values are the transliterations of those
* characters in the given language, to override default transliterations.
