We currently have several sets of files generated from data provided
by Unicode. These all have ad hoc rules and instructions for updating
when new Unicode versions appear, and it's not done consistently.
This patch centralizes and automates the process and makes it part of
the release checklist. The Unicode and CLDR versions are specified in
Makefile.global.in. There is a new make target "update-unicode" that
downloads all the relevant files and runs the generation script.
There is also a new script for generating the table of combining
characters for ucs_wcwidth(). That table is now in a separate include
file rather than hardcoded into the middle of other code. This is
based on the script that was used for generating
d8594d123c, but the script itself wasn't
committed at that time.

As originally coded, the script would fail on Windows 10 and Python 3
because stdout would not be switched to UTF-8 only for Python 2. This
patch makes that apply to both versions.
Also add python 2 compatibility markers so that we know what to remove
once we drop support for that. Also use a "with" clause to ensure file
descriptor is closed promptly.

This has required an update of the python script generating the rules,
as its format has changed in release 29. This release has also added
new punctuation and symbols, and a new set of rules has been generated
to include them. The way to find newest versions of Latin-ASCII gets
also more clearly documented.

Improve generate_unaccent_rules.py to handle composed characters whose base
is another composed character rather than a plain letter. The net effect
of this is to add a bunch of multi-accented Vietnamese characters to
unaccent.rules.

Add Python script for buiding unaccent.rules from Unicode data. Don't
backpatch because unaccent changes may require tsvector/index
rebuild.
