Separate fontconfig xml file for meera

[copyninja]

Since Meera font was requested to be made as default for Debian, we are planning to separate it into fonts-smc-meera package to avoid eating space in installer. As part of the discussion with @santhoshtr I've separated fontconfig file for meera and rachana. fonts-smc-meera will install its own fontconfig xml and fonts-smc will contain rest part of it. Here is a patch please consider merging it.

Fedora already has nice individual fontconf files for smc-fonts. Simply add
them to upstream.

Looks nice my patch was just on malayalam-fonts.conf file which is shipped by SMC upstream. If fedora stuffs works fine then its fine with me to pull them to Debian
