BricsCAD registry structure

The language version of BricsCAD is defined by the presence of a subfolder next to bricscad.exe, with a name that represents a valid locale, i.e. of the format la_CO, la being two lowercase letters specifying the language, CO two uppercase letters specifying the country.

Anything that BricsCAD writes/reads in the registry is first subdivided per major version (V23, V24...), written as Vx below, then per language (en_US, fr_FR, ... written as la_CO below).
