Languages tags (Buruchaski & North Slavey)

[Denis Jacquerye]

Apologies, I hit send too early.

Here are some language tags notes:
- Burushaski [bsk] needs a language tag since it may need locl feature in
some fonts. The Burushaski figure four can be assumed to match that used as
a diacritic on Burushaski letters 0777 ݷ and 077D ݽ, which would require a
locl feature in some fonts if the figure four 06F4 follows Persian form
instead of Urdu form.
- "Slavey" SLA [scs] should be labelled "North Slavey" to match "South
Slavey" SSL [xsl]. "Slavey" or "Slave" refers to both languages or the
macrolangue [den].
- Krymchak [jct] (see https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/jct/Main_Page)
and Khorasani Turkic [kmc] (see
https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/kmz/Ana_sahife) need language tags
since they use i and dotless i and need appropriate features like Turkish
and other languages.

Regards
