Description

List of steps to reproduce (step by step, including full links if applicable):

Have a wiki that's in the 'bn' language
Install and configure Flow/StructuredDiscussions
Go to Special:EnableStructuredDiscussions

What happens?:
Going to Special:EnableStructuredDiscussions on a wiki with the language 'bn' doesn't work and it says "You have requested an invalid special page. A list of valid special pages can be found at Special pages.". Changing the wiki language to English or any other language (at least some I've tested) works.

What should have happened instead?:
The page should've worked correctly and lead to a special page.

Software version (if not a Wikimedia wiki), browser information, screenshots, other information, etc:
MediaWiki: 1.36.1
PHP: 7.3.29-1
Flow version: https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-Flow/tree/76f5ba79f05d47bc576bf757c7acc6db4fc1dc60

This is because of this line. MediaWiki doesn't understand the character য় (U+09DF) and we have to normalize/decompose it (see T152956, T153132 for more info). We need a patch like https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/ContentTranslation/+/326433/

Please replace

	'EnableStructuredDiscussions' => [ 'ফ্লো_সক্রিয়করণ' ],

with

	'EnableStructuredDiscussions' => [ 'ফ্লো_সক্রিয়করণ' ],
