jfbu b3d89f9417 LaTeX: add xindy merge rules for TeX-escaped Greek letters
The effect is that indexed Greek letters are sorted with uppercase Greek
letters before lowercase Greek: ΓΔΘ...αβγ...; without this commit the
Greek letters are ordered according to the ascii characters used in the
TeX control sequences as set-up in sphinx.util.texescape, i.e. the order
is αβχΔδεηΓγ... In both cases indexed terms starting with such a Greek
letter end up in the same group as terms starting with a non-letter.

This commit does not create letter-groups for Greek letters, as such
letter-groups would require to make sure non-escaped letters such as α
are accepted by TeX engine, and this requires extra-steps for pdflatex (or
OpenType font with Greek script for xelatex/lualatex), and if those
steps were made default by Sphinx, there would not be a reason anymore
to escape via sphinx.util.texescape the Greek letters from rest source.

Sphinx is a tool that makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful
documentation for Python projects (or other documents consisting of multiple
reStructuredText sources), written by Georg Brandl.  It was originally created
for the new Python documentation, and has excellent facilities for Python
project documentation, but C/C++ is supported as well, and more languages are
planned.

Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its strengths
come from the power and straightforwardness of reStructuredText and its parsing
and translating suite, the Docutils.

Among its features are the following:

* Output formats: HTML (including derivative formats such as HTML Help, Epub
  and Qt Help), plain text, manual pages and LaTeX or direct PDF output
  using rst2pdf
* Extensive cross-references: semantic markup and automatic links
  for functions, classes, glossary terms and similar pieces of information
* Hierarchical structure: easy definition of a document tree, with automatic
  links to siblings, parents and children
* Automatic indices: general index as well as a module index
* Code handling: automatic highlighting using the Pygments highlighter
* Flexible HTML output using the Jinja 2 templating engine
* Various extensions are available, e.g. for automatic testing of snippets
  and inclusion of appropriately formatted docstrings
* Setuptools integration
