Summary:
When setting `NSDateComponentsFormatter`’s units’ style (-[NSDateComponentsFormatter setUnitsStyle:]`) when dealing with the French (France) locale (fr-FR) it incorrectly uses the following units:

- “s” instead of “sec”

- “m” instead of “min”

etc.

I have tested this with the American English locale (en-US) and the issue doesn’t appear (i.e. it returns “sec”, etc.)

As a native French speaker, the returned strings are the abbreviations and not the “short” style.

Steps to Reproduce:
- Use the French (France) locale (either via the schemes menu or directly on the device itself, it doesn’t really matter)

- Create an NSDateComponentsFormatter, set its units’ style to NSDateComponentsFormatterUnitsStyleShort

- Request a formatted string

Expected Results:
For the formatter to return a “short” style of the units

Actual Results:
The formatter returns an abbreviated version of the units

Version:
iOS 10.0 GM up until iOS 10.1 beta 2 (14B67)

Notes:
I did notice that the abbreviated version doesn’t have a space in between the number and the unit and that the “short” version does have a space.

Configuration:
iOS Simulator & iPhone 6s +
