Summary: unichr(wide) error on ucs2 build

Initial Comment:
PyUnicode_FromOrdinal has code supporting UCS2 build
already. But it is disabled by range validating routine.
I think it should be either removed or modified to
allow wide characters. (Please see the attachment.)

PEP 261 specifies that unichr() should raise a ValueError on
narrow builds, so this check must stay the way it is. If you
want to make it consistent, please remove the useless
support for UTF-16 instead.
