Drop duplicate "Malay (Jawi)" entry

The fix of <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94036> added the Indonesian (Jawi) keyboard layout via the symbols file id. Two additional symbols files - my and bn - where added, which both load the just mentioned layout, and they both have the name Malay (Jawi).

The list of input sources includes:

Indonesian (Jawi)
Malay (Jawi)
Malay (Jawi)

One of the "Malay (Jawi)" items is apparently redundant, so I'd suggest that the bn symbols file is dropped.

Besides being redundant, the presence of the bn symbols file confuses the ibus-avro tool for typing Bangla/Bengali; please see <https://askubuntu.com/q/903961>. While the latter is probably a bug in ibus-avro, dropping the duplicate entry in xkb-data serves the purpose of working around that conflict for now.
