Convert Arabic glyphs into standard letters

[linuxscout]

According to previous issue issue 57, we propose to add a new function to unshape this text

Salam, I tested the given words with pyarabic word as follow, the word contains encoded glyphs not standard letters, it must be converted to ordinary letters.

To convert glyph based word into a string of letters you can use: NB: the second unshape function is used only to inverse the result word

 word = "ﻣﺴﺎﻣﻌﻬﻢ"
 from pyarabic.unshape import unshaping_word
unshaping_word(unshaping_word(word))
'مسامعهم'

• The test used to detect the problem

``>>> import pyarabic.araby as ar
