Add `dRa` #25

For representing cases like this:

While an interpretation like this is possible:

some users (SP) prefer द्रा .

I think it should take two spaces, and be a variant of dir, but need to confirm that. Also need to confirm if we'll need rDa.

Will also need to think about how this is implemented in Bhatkhande English and Punjabi.

The dRa representation is stylistic and extraneous, and functionally possible within the current design. To implement it with stylistic alternates may be the best way, but unfortunately the target audience will likely not be using tools that allow them to enable such advanced font features. This request is rejected for now.
