[BRLTTY] Contracted English braille error and patch: Beffana

Hi all,

Words beginning with beff currently use both the be and the ff signs. This 
patch removes the be in this case.

This is an extremely rare word beginning. Beffana is an alternate spelling 
for befana, which according to Google is an Italian witch. Beffana is so 
rare it's not even on dictionary.com! But if somebody was talking about, 
say, a name beginning with beff these two signs together would look weird.

HTH,
