Glyphs for Malayalam Archaic II, minor fractions and Chillu LLL

Recently I and Cibu Johny have proposed various characters to be added to the
Malayalam Unicode block and in the last May 2013 UTC meeting they have been
approved and further (IIUC) approved by the WG2 meeting last month in Lithunia.
The links are provided below:

N4429     Proposal to encode Malayalam minor fractions
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n4429.pdf

N4428     Proposal to encode MALAYALAM LETTER CHILLU LLL
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n4428.pdf

N4312     Proposal for MALAYALAM LETTER ARCHAIC II
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/wg2/docs/n4312.pdf

This is a placeholder bug (like bug #839303 for Tamil fractions and symbols) to
ensure that the requisite glyphs are added immediately once the characters are
published in the Unicode standard finally. 

I have designed the glyphs for these proposed characters partially based on
existing glyphs from the Lohit Malayalam font and would like to submit these as
my contributions to the Lohit project under the OFL.
