New and changed script subtags based on ISO 15924 changes

Here are records and registration forms for six new script subtags, plus
one for which the ISO 15924 name has been changed. These reflect changes
announced on the ISO 15924/RA site earlier this week.

Note that three of the changes are listed as having been made last year,
on 2012-11-01. This is per the normative 15924 data file and the "Notice
of Changes" page.

Two of these subtags include Description fields with non-ASCII
characters. For readers of the list digest, which converts these to
question marks, the version with NCRs is given at the end of the
registration form [in square brackets].

These will be submitted to IANA after two weeks, barring any problems.
