Add default abbreviations file (data/abbreviations).

This contains a list of strings that will be recognized by pandoc's
Markdown parser as abbreviations.  (A nonbreaking space will
be inserted after the period, preventing a sentence space in
formats like LaTeX.)

Users can override the default by putting a file abbreviations
in their user data directory (`~/.pandoc` on *nix).
