I checked that http://thepashto.com/ gives the same strings for yes and
no.

Committed.

Don't yesexpr and noexpr need an update now?  At least, I can't see
"<U0647>" character in yesexpr.

Yes, but I am unsure how. There are some Arabic characters in yesexpr
and noexpr, but they seem to have nothing to do with what we have no in
yesstr and nostr. I wonder whether these Arabic characters which we have
now in yesexpr and noexpr are just wrong ...

Fair enough.  I think it's better to leave this unchanged if we don't
know how to change correctly.  Hopefully someone with a better knowledge
will eventually file a bug report and explain this.

They may be formally wrong but sometimes useful.  Similarly to +/-,
1/0, and y/n which we have added to many other locales even although
they don't look like "yes"/"no" in their proper languages.
