fix case mapping for U+00DF (ß)
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.
