Unicode 16.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 16.0.0, using
the generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).
Changes in CHARMAP and WIDTH:
Total added characters in newly generated CHARMAP: 5185
Total removed characters in newly generated WIDTH: 1
Total added characters in newly generated WIDTH: 170
The removed character from WIDTH is U+1171E AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL RA.
It changed like this:
UnicodeData.txt 15.1.0: 1171E;AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL RA;Mn;0;NSM;;;;;N;;;;;
UnicodeData.txt 16.0.0: 1171E;AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL RA;Mc;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
EastAsianWidth.txt 15.1.0: 1171D..1171F ; N # Mn [3] AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL LA..AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL LIGATING RA
EastAsianWidth.txt 16.0.0: 1171E ; N # Mc AHOM CONSONANT SIGN MEDIAL RA
I.e it changed from Mn (Mark Nonspacing) to Mc (Mark Spacing
combining). So it should now have width 1 instead of 0, therefore it
is OK that it was removed from WIDTH, characters not in WIDTH get
width 1 by default.
Nothing suspicious when browsing the list of the 170 added characters.
Changes in ctype:
alpha: Added 4452 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
combining: Added 51 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
combining_level3: Added 43 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
graph: Added 5185 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype

print: Added 5185 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
punct: Missing 33 characters of old ctype in new ctype
punct: Added 766 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
tolower: Added 27 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
totitle: Added 27 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
toupper: Added 27 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
upper: Added 27 characters in new ctype which were not in old ctype
Nothing suspicous in the additions.
About the 33 characters removed from `punct`:
U+0363 - U+036F are identical in UnicodeData.txt. Difference in DerivedCoreProperties.txt:
DerivedCoreProperties.txt 15.1.0: not there.
DerivedCoreProperties.txt 16.0.0: 0363..036F ; Alphabetic # Mn [13] COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER A..COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER X
So that’s the reason why they are added to `alpha` and removed from `punct`.
Same for U+1DD3 - U+1DE6, they are identical in UnicodeData.txt but there is a difference in DerivedCoreProperties.txt:
DerivedCoreProperties.txt 15.1.0: 1DE7..1DF4 ; Alphabetic # Mn [14] COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER ALPHA..COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS
DerivedCoreProperties.txt 16.0.0: 1DD3..1DF4 ; Alphabetic # Mn [34] COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER FLATTENED OPEN A ABOVE..COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS
So they became `Alphabetic` and were thus added to `alpha` and removed from `punct`.

= `Default_Ignorable_Code_Point`s should have width 0 =
Unicode specifies (https://www.unicode.org/faq/unsup_char.html#3) that characters
with the `Default_Ignorable_Code_Point` property
> should be rendered as completely invisible (and non advancing, i.e. “zero width”),
if not explicitly supported in rendering.
Hence, `wcwidth()` should give them all a width of 0, with two exceptions:
- the soft hyphen (U+00AD SOFT HYPHEN) is assigned width 1 by longstanding precedent
- U+115F HANGUL CHOSEONG FILLER needs a carveout
due to the unique behavior of the conjoining Korean jamo characters.
One composed Hangul "syllable block" like 퓛
is made up of two to three individual component characters, or "jamo".
These are all assigned an `East_Asian_Width` of `Wide`
by Unicode, which would normally mean they would all be assigned
width 2 by glibc; a combination of (leading choseong jamo) +
(medial jungseong jamo) + (trailing jongseong jamo) would then have width 2 + 2 + 2 = 6.
However, glibc (and other wcwidth implementations) special-cases jungseong and jongseong,
assigning them all width 0,
to ensure that the complete block has width 2 + 0 + 0 = 2 as it should.
U+115F is meant for use in syllable blocks
that are intentionally missing a leading jamo;
it must be assigned a width of 2 even though it has no visible display
to ensure that the complete block has width 2.
However, `wcwidth()` currently (before this patch)
incorrectly assigns non-zero width to
U+3164 HANGUL FILLER and U+FFA0 HALFWIDTH HANGUL FILLER;
this commit fixes that.
Unicode spec references:
- Hangul: §3.12 https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch03.pdf#G24646 and
§18.6 https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch18.pdf#G31028

= Non-`Default_Ignorable_Code_Point` format controls should be visible =
The Unicode Standard, §5.21 - Characters Ignored for Display
(https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch05.pdf#G40095)
says the following:
> A small number of format characters (General_Category = Cf )
> are also not given the Default_Ignorable_Code_Point property.
> This may surprise implementers, who often assume
> that all format characters are generally ignored in fallback display.
> The exact list of these exceptional format characters
> can be found in the Unicode Character Database.
> There are, however, three important sets of such format characters to note:
>
> - prepended concatenation marks
> - interlinear annotation characters
> - Egyptian hieroglyph format controls
>
> The prepended concatenation marks always have a visible display.
> See “Prepended Concatenation Marks” in [*Section 23.2, Layout Controls*](https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.1.0/ch23.pdf#M9.35858.HeadingBreak.132.Layout.Controls)
> for more discussion of the use and display of these signs.

> The other two notable sets of format characters that exceptionally are not ignored

> U+13430 EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPH VERTICAL JOINER through

> These characters should have a visible glyph display for fallback rendering,

glibc currently correctly assigns non-zero width to the prepended concatenation marks,
but it incorrectly gives zero width to the interlinear annotation characters
(which a generic terminal cannot interpret)
and the Egyptian hieroglyph format controls
(which are not widely supported in rendering implementations at present).
This commit fixes both these issues as well.
= Derive Hangul syllable type from Unicode data =
Previosuly, the jungseong and jongseong jamo ranges
were hard-coded into the script. With this commit, they are instead parsed
from the HangulSyllableType.txt data file published by Unicode.
This does not affect the end result.

they are all sequences and not single code points.

This code page is identical to code page 850 except that X'D5'
has been changed from LI61 (dotless i) to SC20 (euro symbol).
The code points from /x01 to /x1f in the /localedata/charmaps/IBM858
file have the same mapping as those in localedata/charmaps/ANSI_X3.4-1968.
That means they disagree with with
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/globalization/gcoc/attachments/CP00858.txt
in that range.
For example, localedata/charmaps/IBM858 and localedata/charmaps/ANSI_X3.4-1968 have:
“<U0001> /x01 START OF HEADING (SOH)”
whereas CP00858.txt has:
“01 SS000000 Smiling Face”
That means that CP00858.txt is not really ASCII-compatible and to make
it ASCII-compatible we deviate fro CP00858.txt in the code points from /x01
to /x1f.

Microsoft long ago added a mapping for 0x80 to the Euro sign to their
CP936. While GBK 1.0 doesn't include this mapping, it is compatible,
and Microsoft and glibc alias the two codepages. We could split them
apart so GBK wouldn't include the mapping, but that seems like a lot
of work for little gain.

repertoire maps and character mnemonics were used early in the glibc
i18n/l10n effort but were quickly deprecated in favor of Unicode code
points. According to ChangeLog, the in-tree repertoire maps were
removed 2000-07-07 but some stray references remain even today. The
patch below removes them.
