the script supports setting the title/source/address/revision/date fields
in the desc. i'm on the fence whether we want to blow existing metadata
and just use the cldr. e.g.
--- a/localedata/locales/en_US
+++ b/localedata/locales/en_US

then it would be obvious what version of CLDR was used to update the
locale. the downside is that the file isn't 100% sourced from CLDR,
so it seems like clobbering all the fields is wrong ?
maybe set source to a string like:
source "Mostly based on Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR)"
