Make unaccent handle all diacritics known to Unicode, and expand ligatures correctly

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

+# This script builds unaccent.rules on standard output when given the
+# contents of UnicodeData.txt[1] on standard input.  Optionally includes
+# ligature expansion, if --expand-ligatures is given on the command line.
+#
+# The approach is to use the Unicode decomposition data to identify
+# precomposed codepoints that are equivalent to a ligature of several
+# letters, or a base letter with any number of diacritical marks.
+# There is also a small set of special cases for codepoints that we
+# traditionally support even though Unicode doesn't consider them to
+# be ligatures or letters with marks.
