Description
When using a locale which is not en_GB.UTF-8 or en_US.UTF-8, QtWebEngine 5.15.3 is unusable. This can be reproduced by e.g. doing LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 ./simplebrowser.
Simplebrowser will immediately display "Render process exited with code: 1002", and [262119:262119:0310/130117.346919:ERROR:network_service_instance_impl.cc(286)] Network service crashed, restarting service. is constantly logged in the terminal.
Doing something like LANG=de_CH.UTF-8 strace -e trace=%file -f ./simplebrowser 2>&1 | grep qtwebengine_locales reveals that the subprocesses seem to try accessing a wrong locale file:
Main process:

As a workaround, running ./simplebrowser --lang=de (or any other existing locale pak in /usr/share/qt/translations/qtwebengine_locales/) makes everything work again.
