[Fontconfig] New orth file for Uyghur with different script variant

[Eagle Burkut]

We developed a new locale "ug_US" and filed a report to have it included in
glibc at:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13865.

And, we also developed a new, corresponding orthography rule "ug_us.orth",
filed a report to have it included in fontconfig at:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47459.

Please add the "ug_us.orth" orthography file to fontconfig at your earliest
convenience.

Thank you.
