#5166: short_name used instead of name for results in languages without translated
name

-----------------------+-------------------------
 Search result for places which has short_name set using accept-language
 which is missing an explicit translation will give you the short_name
 instead of name.

 Example:
 New York City displayed with accept-language=sv will have NYC as first
 component of display_name and as city in address details. I expect it to
 be New York City.

 Example url:
 http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=new%20york%20city&accept-
 language=sv&addressdetails=1&format=json
