.diff that adds the new commands to syntax file tcl.xml

Hi! 
With Tcl/tk 8.5 (released in late 2007) several new commands were introduced to the language. 
Kate still does not recognise and highlight them correctly. I guess it's time to fix that :-)
Here's a patch that adds all of the "new" commands.
I did not update the 'keywords-opt' list however - simply too much work...

Thanks a lot for the patch! Already committed. Still, if for you as Tcl/tk user it is too much work to update the keywords-opt list, it is by far too much work for us (we have no Tcl/tk knowledge) to do it.

So if you want the update, would be nice, if you could provide another patch :-)
