Add additional Kartvelian symbols to the Georgian layout

@rkkr

There are several linguistic minorities in Georgia (Sakartvelo) that speak their own language related to Georgian. Should I add symbols from their alphabets to the Georgian layout?

Also, the specific script/layout we have for Georgian now has a name called Mkhedruli. Where do I edit it?

[rkkr]

The default answer is "look at GBoard".

So, if those symbols are not in GBoard, you would reject the changes, right?

[rkkr]

Probably yes. I would also expect that GBoard has a separate layout for for such a variant.

[soshial]

Unfortunately not, GBoard doesn't support neither Svan, nor Mingrelian, nor Laz language.

Example of a separate app with Svan layout: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tevzadze.svanurikeyboard (it's the same layout as Georgian but with mostly vowel diacritics added)
