UAX #29 in Unicode 11 changed the EGC algorithm to its current form.
Although Qt has upgraded the Unicode tables all the way up to
Unicode 13, the algorithm has never been adapted; in other words,
it has been working by chance for years. Luckily, MOST
of the cases were dealt with correctly, but emoji handling
actually manages to break it.
This commit:
* Adds parsing of emoji-data.txt into the unicode table generator.
That is necessary to extract the Extended_Pictographic property,
which is used by the EGC algorithm.
* Regenerates the tables.
* Removes some obsoleted grapheme cluster break properties, and
adds the ones added in the meanwhile.
* Rewrites the EGC algorithm according to Unicode 13. This is
done by simplifying a lot the lookup table. Some rules (GB11,
GB12, GB13) can't be done by the table alone so some hand-rolled
code is necessary in that case.
* Thanks to these fixes, the complete upstream GraphemeBreakTest
now passes. Remove the "edited" version that ignored some rows
(because they were failing).
