Slavonictajiki

These are two new layouts for two new languages.

One is Tajiki. The Tajik language is a regional dialect of the Persian language, but unlike the persian language as spoken in other places, Tajiki is written with a modified form of the Cyrillic alphabet. Elsewhere, it's written with a modified form of the Arabic alphabet. The layout is similar to Russian, but a few Russian letters have been removed to make room for the Tajik ones. It looks like this:

The other is Old Church Slavonic. This is a really cool language. It's almost like what Latin is for romance languages, except for the slavic-language-speaking world. It remains the standard liturgical language of any slavic-language-speaking ecclesiastical community. Regardless of whether you are in a Bulgarian community, or Serbian, or Ukrainian, or Russian, etc., you are likely to hear the Slavonic language sung in the church services. There are different forms of slavonic, some with more archaic spellings and some with more modern spellings, but regardless, this keyboard should help allow people to type in it. It looks like this:

Both of these layouts, however, can become simultaneously simpler and more effective if #768 is implemented.

#768 has been implemented. Do these layouts need any revision ?

@Julow
They didn't really need it, but with the new fn and compose sequences, they could be cleaned up a bit more. Now they have been and it looks so much clearer with those dotted circles and everything, wow! 😁
