This function attempts to invert the italic markup a args.text by adding/removing leading/trailing italic markup
in args.text. Like |italic=unset, |italic=invert disables automatic italic markup. Individual leading/trailing
apostrophes are converted to their html numeric entity equivalent so that the new italic markup doesn't become
bold markup inadvertently.
Leading and trailing wiki markup is extracted from args.text into separate table elements. Addition, removal,
replacement of wiki markup is handled by a string.gsub() replacement table operating only on these separate elements.
In the string.gsub() matching pattern, '.*' matches empty string as well as the three expected wiki markup patterns.
This function expects that markup in args.text is complete and correct; if it is not, oddness may result.

validates |italic= or |italics= assigned values.
When |italic= is set and has an acceptible assigned value, return the matching css font-style property value or,
for the special case 'default', return nil.
When |italic= is not set, or has an unacceptible assigned value, return nil and a nil error message.
When both |italic= and |italics= are set, returns nil and a 'conflicting' error message.
The return value nil causes the calling lang, lang_xx, or transl function to set args.italic according to the template's
defined default ('inherit' for {{lang}}, 'inherit' or 'italic' for {{lang-??}} depending on
the individual template's requirements, 'italic' for {{transliteration}}) or to the value appropriate to |script=, if set ({{lang}}
and {{lang-??}} only).
Accepted values and the values that this function returns are are:
nil - when |italic= absent or not set; returns nil
default - for completeness, should rarely if ever be used; returns nil
yes - force args.text to be rendered in italic font; returns 'italic'
no - force args.text to be rendered in normal font; returns 'normal'
unset - disables font control so that font-style applied to text is dictated by markup inside or outside the template; returns 'inherit'
invert - disables font control so that font-style applied to text is dictated by markup outside or inverted inside the template; returns 'invert'

Default behavior of the {{lang}} and {{lang-??}} templates is to add categorization when the templates are used in mainspace.
This default functionality may be suppressed by setting |nocat=yes or |cat=no. This function selects one of these two parameters
to control categorization.
Because having two parameters with 'opposite' names and 'opposite' values is confusing, this function accepts only affirmative
values for |nocat= and only negative values for |cat=; in both cases the 'other' sense (and non-sense) is not accepted and the
parameter is treated as if it were not set in the template.
Sets args.nocat to true if categorization is to be turned off; to nil if the default behavior should apply.
Accepted values for |nocat= are the text strings:
'yes', 'y', 'true', 't', on, '1' -- [[Module:Yesno]] returns logical true for all of these; false or nil else
for |cat=
'no', 'n', 'false', 'f', 'off', '0' -- [[Module:Yesno]] returns logical false for all of these; true or nil else

extracts and returns IETF language tag parts:
primary language subtag (required) - 2 or 3 character IANA language code
script subtag - four character IANA script code
region subtag - two-letter or three digit IANA region code
variant subtag - four digit or 5-8 alnum variant code; only one variant subtag supported
private subtag - x- followed by 1-8 alnum private code; only supported with the primary language tag
in any one of these forms
lang lang-variant
lang-script lang-script-variant
lang-region lang-region-variant
lang-script-region lang-script-region-variant
lang-x-private
each of lang, script, region, variant, and private, when used, must be valid
Languages with both two- and three-character code synonyms are promoted to the two-character synonym because
the IANA registry file omits the synonymous three-character code; we cannot depend on browsers understanding
the synonymous three-character codes in the lang= attribute.
For {{lang-??}} templates, the parameters |script=, |region=, and |variant= are supported (not supported in {{lang}}
because those parameters are superfluous to the IETF subtags in |code=)
returns six values; all lower case. Valid parts are returned as themselves; omitted parts are returned as empty strings, invalid
parts are returned as nil; the sixth returned item is an error message (if an error detected) or nil.
