Persian picker progress

hi Behnam,

fyi, i made a first stab at the Persian picker - still a good way to go, 
so don't worry too much about the missing or irrelevant stuff.

I put some preliminary code in place to do Persian to UN transcriptions. 
  There are a number of things that need more attention, particularly 
related to the vowels, and i may need to ask you about those.  The rules 
in 
http://unstats.un.org/unsd/geoinfo/UNGEGN/docs/10th-uncsgn-docs/econf/E_CONF.101_118_Rev.1_Transcription%20symbols%20for%20Persian_Updated.pdf 
may not be specific enough. (Hope that's the right reference.)

I'm going to switch to something else for the rest of today, but next on 
my agenda is to read up on the vowels a bit more carefully and see where 
we can tune the converter a bit.

cheers,
ri
