german "umlaut"-letters in slugfields could be better

Description

Hi,

when slugfields are generated from german textfields
it would result in much nicer slugs

if the umlauts where written in the following way
(currently umlauts are just cut away):

ü (= the html ü) -> ue

ö (= the html ö) -> oe

ä (= the html ä) -> ae

ß (= the html ß)-> sz

same with capital letters!

The resulting slugfield could still be read in german!

Also norwegian

æ (= æ) -> ae
ø (= ø) -> oe
å (= å) -> aa

Æ (= &Aelig;) -> Ae
Ø (= Ø) -> Oe
Å (= Å) -> Aa

Other bugs about this have been closed in favor of #2489, which aims to switch to Unicode throughout all of Django and is really the correct way to get at this, so I'm doing the same here.
