[Keyboard Layouts] No actual keyboard layouts for many languages

[නොදන්නා]

Ubuntu 20.4.1 LTS

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true (done)

On ubuntu, proper keyboard layouts not available for many languages. Below few examples
- Chinese (Available layouts: Chinese, Hanyu Pinyin(altgr)
- Sinhala (Available layouts: US, with sinhala letters, Sinhala (phonetic)
and many other languages

According above two examples, it's better to not add above mentioned layouts because no useful at all.

See the windows 10, it has exact proper keyboard layouts for nearly all popular languages. Review them and implement the same for ubuntu

Furthermore, there're huge amount of keyboard layouts available with english characters for many languages.(eg: japanese, thai and more) it's better remove them and basically duplicate with english keyboard layouts (or you may able to merge into english keyboards list if necessary)

Update regarding keyboard layouts.

[Ubuntu 20.04.01] I noticed relevant keyboard layouts available now but i couldn't track versions or updates. I guess this may or may not applicable to other languages.
However there is still an issue; even newly appeared keyboard layouts are correct and working properly but when click each layouts 'show keyboard layout' eye icon then it still display english characters and not the particular language own characters.
