Maybe this task should be solved as a maintenance job because it has to be done only once.

qqq and qqx are not affected.
A maintenance job can be problematic. It has to be run after every deployment because maybe the mapping of deprecated language codes has changed. A maintenance job can be very heavy when the user database is large. Replacing the deprecated language codes on database read is a small check which has to be also done on other inputs like the uselang parameter.

The user option variant also contains a language code which can be a deprecated language code after T117845: Rename the language codes sr-ec and sr-el to the BCP 47 conform codes sr-Cyrl and sr-Latn or other changes of language codes.
