the mapping tables and code are not automatically generated; they were
produced by comparing the output of towupper/towlower against the
mappings in the UCD, ignoring characters that were previously excluded
from case mappings or from alphabetic status (micro sign and circled
letters), and adding table entries or code for everything else
missing.
based very loosely on a patch by Reini Urban.

Make a fast path for ascii chars which is assumed to be the most common
case. This has significant performance benefit on xml json and similar

U+00DF ('ß') has had an uppercase form (U+1E9E) available since
Unicode 5.1, but Unicode lacks the case mappings for it due to
stability policy. when I added support for the new character in commit
1a63a9fc30e7a1f1239e3cedcb5041e5ec1c5351, I omitted the mapping in the
lowercase-to-uppercase direction. this choice was not based on any
actual information, only assumptions.
this commit adds bidirectional case mappings between U+00DF and
U+1E9E, and removes the special-case hack that allowed U+00DF to be
identified as lowecase despite lacking a mapping. aside from strong
evidence that this is the "right" behavior for real-world usage of
these characters, several factors informed this decision:
- the other "potentially correct" mapping, to "SS", is not
representable in the C case-mapping system anyway.
- leaving one letter in lowercase form when transforming a string to
uppercase is obviously wrong.
- having a character which is nominally lowercase but which is fixed
under case mapping violates reasonable invariants.

the main practical purposes of this commit are to remove a huge amount
of clutter from the src/locale directory, to cut down on the length of
the $(AR) and $(LD) command lines, and to reduce the amount of space
wasted by object file headers in the static libc.a. build time may
also be reduced, though this has not been measured.
as an additional justification, if there ever were a need for the
behavior of these functions to vary by locale, it would be necessary
for the non-_l versions to call the _l versions, so that linking the
former without the latter would not be possible anyway.

also special-case ß (U+00DF) as lowercase even though it does not have
a mapping to uppercase. unicode added an uppercase version of this
character but does not map it, presumably because the uppercase
version is not actually used except for some obscure purpose...
