Bug#590615: Fixes for Serbian hyphen patterns

I filled an upstream issue to integrate latest Serbian Hypehn patterns:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=113478

They will probably be integrated for 3.4 as a target. I will release
dict-sr.oxt extension before 3.3 release so users of OpenOffice.org will
be able to update before integration. I find it reasonable to push this
change to Debian faster, but if it is time consuming, it is not necessary.

For some time now OpenOffice.org is having just a single Serbian
dictionary located inside "dictionaries/sr" directory included in both sr
and sh localizations. Debian openoffice.org-hyphenation-sh package is very
obsolete.

"sh" lang code is misused here, it should be "sr@latin" but OpenOffice.org
does not support locale modifiers and "sh" is used as an altenative for
Serbian Latin.

A typical user writing in Serbian language like to have both Latin and
Cyrillic support. I find this argument important enough for both hyphen
patterns to be packaged same as they are released upstream, in
openoffice.org-hyphenation-sr

For comparison, Fedora is doing the same on request by other Serbian users:
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/hunspell-sr/devel/hunspell-sr.spec?view=markup

Kind regards,
Goran Rakic
