Add mbrowrap.cpp to emulate the mbrola library which is available in Windows, but not on Linux. mbrola voices in command-line espeak and libespeak now call mbrola directly rather than generating phoneme information as text.

espeak_Key(key_name) If key_name is a single character, it speaks the character name. Otherwise it speaks key_name as a text string. This is the same behaviour as <say-as interpret-as="tts:key">

Fix error in phoneme translation data for mbrola "cr1" Croation voice.
