This seems to change existing aliases without providing a replacement, which could be a backwards-compatibility problem.

What is the purpose of this change?

To prepare for the renaming of the Image namespace to File. The Arabic word for File ملف was used as the translation for NS_MEDIA instead of the correct translation which would be ميديا or وسائط. Then it was corrected in r28772 and ملف was added as alias for NS_MEDIA. To sum it up: MEDIA = ميديا or وسائط IMAGE = صورة FILE = ملف

Will some links break? Yes, some links will have to be updated manually, luckily not many as ar WP is relatively small. This problem was originally caused because NS_MEDIA was mistranslated in r2463
