Amir E. AharoniandKartik Mistry a02f4e3b6a Rename Okinawan 
The previous name was added in 2008 for translatewiki, and it's
not actually the autonym, but its IPA pronunciation.

This language uses several orthographies based
on Japanese writing systems, and several linguists
whose expertise is Ryukyuan linguistics recommended
that I use this Hiragana-based name as the most
neutral and understandable. I'll also add aliases
to ULS to ensure that it's findable.

Also remove the "Kana" writing system,
which is just a subset of "Jpan".

Amir E. AharoniandGitHub 1dbb89e3f8 Redirect "Eastern Yiddish" (ydd) to Yiddish (yi) (#220) 
"Eastern" Yiddish is much more common than Western, so ydd
and yi refer to the same language. It's unclear why was ydd
even added to translatewiki. It was done very long ago,
before translatewiki configuration was managed in Git.
There are no translation into it there, which makes sense,
given that it's the same as just Yiddish (yi).

Given that ydd is a standard code, it can remain as
a redirect, but it shouldn't really be used.

Amir E. AharoniandKartik Mistry abc5ad4b4e Fix the autonym for Rundi (rn) 
The name "Kirundi" was added to MediaWiki very early in
its history. This name is used in English (in addition to "Rundi"),
but the native name is actually "ikirundi". It appears in Ethnologue.

the Thai script, so allow it, too.

This also adds support for the Tai Tham script

Amir E. AharoniandKartik Mistry ceb18ea4dd Rename gur to "farefare" 
The name "gurenɛ" is used only in Ghana and refers only
to one dialect. This language is also spoken in Burkina Faso,
and the name "farefare" covers all the dialects in both
countries. The activity in this language in translatewiki.net
and in the Wikimedia Incubator is higher recently, and this
was requested by the contributors to this language.

Confirmed with the book

(page 6).

Amir AharoniandNiklas Laxström 4e45e0cd80 Split language ciw to ciw and ojb 
A translatewiki translator said that this ojb the more
appropriate code for the existing translations, so it has
to be added. The code ciw is valid, too, so it's preserved.
The name "Ojibwemowin" is more appropriate for ojb, and
ciw is now named "Anishinaabemowin".

I also confirmed this with another Ojibwe language teacher.
