Move handling of SetLetterVowel() to language files
Contributes to:
Issue #218, https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/issues/218
Changes:
language files have a new keyword letterVowel. It can be a latin alphabet from a-z or a hex value (used by bulgarian).
Errors in parsing the values are only reported, nothing is done about them.
About testing:
I haven't noticed any differences in the output audio with letterVowel set or unset in any tested language. The code seems to work and the correct bits seem to be set, but I don't know how to confirm from the final audio.
TODO:
1. Write better documentation in docs/voices.md
2. The code uses new_translator. Should it use translator instead?
Command line option --voices:
Replace spaces in voice name by underscores.
Show hyphen if no gender is specified.
--voices=<directory> shows the voices in the specified subdirectory.
Language changes: bn (Bengali), an.

Keep the original voice variant across SSML xml:lang changes.
Use the original language sub-type (eg. en-sc) when SSML xml:lang changes to a compatible language.
SSML <emphasis>, increase volume for "strong" and "x-strong".
Fix bug where </emphasis> was ignored at end of clause.
Fix: $dot attribute was ignored for multi-word entries in *_list files.

Fix crash with SSML <say-as>.
Sada audio output now OK on big-endian processors.
Don't reduce the pause before doubles stop consonants (eg.Finnish "kk") as much at high speeds.
Language changes: pl (reduce length of stressed syllables, [i] closer, [f] stronger befiore [s]).
