Use Symfony / context code to retrieve HTTP language preferences

[#117824] is about to introduce the Symfony HTTP request handling class that includes support for language detection in the request. We have custom code for that in our language negotiation that we can then get rid of. Look for getPreferredLanguage() and getLanguages() in the Request class.

Marking postponed until this Symfony HTTP library lands.

    (Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative) is the tag used by the multilingual initiative to mark core issues (and some contributed module issues). For versions other than Drupal 8, use the i18n (Internationalization) tag on issues which involve or affect multilingual / multinational support. That is preferred over Translation.

    Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

    We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

    Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

    Thanks!
