[issue7643] What is an ASCII linebreak?

Here is draft of the patch to do what is proposed by Marc André on msg97440 (add VT and FF).
Additionnally I upgraded the UCD 5.1 -> 5.2.

The implementation uses field 16 as defined in "py3k" implementation of "makeunicodedata.py". It should minimize differences between Py2 and Py3 implementations.

Documentation and tests are missing.
I can provide a "diff.gz" containing "Modules/unicodedata_db.h", "Modules/unicodename_db.h" and "Objects/unicodetype_db.h", if needed.


- /* Returns 1 for Unicode characters having the category 'Zl',
-  * 'Zp' or type 'B', 0 otherwise.
+ /* Returns 1 for Unicode characters having the line break
+  * property 'BK', 'CR', 'LF' or 'NL' or having bidirectional
+  * type 'B', 0 otherwise.
   */

Note: the "remove_deprecation" should be applied before to remove "-3" warnings.
