BUG: Fix ctkLanguageComboBox normalizing default language and selection

Discovered during the resolution of issues in `ctkLanguageComboBoxTest`, this
commit addresses a bug in the normalization and selection of the default language
in `ctkLanguageComboBox`.

It introduces the function `normalizeLocaleCode` to ensure that the default locale
code is set to its normalized value if valid.

Furthermore, the `updateLanguageItems()` function is updated to select the default
locale code if the user has not already made a selection.
