The characters ऋ and ॠ are pronunced as ru in languages such as
Marathi, Gujarati, Telugu, etc. so add new translation rules that
reflects this sound.  (bug#56414)

* lisp/language/ind-util.el (indian-itrans-v5-table): Add new
translation rules to make the input method more phonetic.
(indian-tml-base-table, indian-tml-base-digits-table): Fix typo.
