Generalized reorder rules in text normalization
- Generalized `Nikhahit + Tonemark + Sara A` case to also cover `Nikhahit + Sara A`
  - New rule: `Nikhahit + TONEMARK* + Sara Aa -> TONEMARK* + Sara Am`
- Generalized `Sara Am + Tonemark` case to also cover follow vowels
  - New rule: `FOLLOWVOWEL+ + TONEMARK+ -> TONEMARK+ + FOLLOWVOWEL+`
- Generalized `Thanthakhat + Above/Follow vowel` and `Tonemark + Above/Follow vowel`
  -  New rule: `TONE/Thanthakhat+ + A/BVOWELV+ -> A/BVOWEL+ + TONE/Thanthakhat+`
