    Well the language-related stuff also has other
    properties that make sense to be kept in one place I
    guess.

    The file which needs to be changed is actually
    src/other/spell/xp/ispell_checker.h where we have to
    put the name of the hash.
    I've added code to look for a hash file named
    "yiddish-yivo.hash" when the language code is "yi".
    This will allow people to add other yiddish
    orthographies in the future if they wish without it
    getting too confusing.

    Added Yiddish spelling hash support.
    For langugae code "yi" the spelling hash must be named
    "yiddish-yivo.hash".
    YIVO is the major but not the only orthographic
    standard for Yiddish.
