Registered braille codes would benefit from more elaborate explanation / metadata about metadata

[bertfrees]

The explanation of the registered braille codes is currently limited to one short string, derived from the "index-name" metadata of the corresponding Liblouis translation tables. For example:

• braille code: NABCC no-grade comp8
• index-name metadata of corresponding Liblouis table: "English, U.S., computer, NABCC"

(Note that the purpose of the index-name metadata is to be used within a table selection form, e.g. a dropdown list. The strings are brief and make for a clear list when sorted alphabetically.)

It would be good if we could use a more descriptive string, and possibly add more metadata. For example:

NABCC no-grade comp8
