Looking for ack-s for 3-4 and 3-4-2.

The goal is to reset the classification of the entire full+half width
range back to ASIAN, i.e. consider the 0-9 and A-z full-width forms as
ASIAN despite their UAX24 classification as Latin, because that's the
way it used to be done and documents change otherwise, and because the
full-width Latin/Common Numerals exist in order to be the same cell
width as full-width CJK chars so they should be rendered with a CJK
font, which is all we want this particular classification to determine
for us.

I also reset back the entire number-forms range to WEAK as well, i.e.
the single-glyph roman-numerals "i", "IV", etc. seeing as they also
really only exist in order to be nicely rendered in CJK vertical text
mode.

looks big, but its basically just if "old explicitly assigned range use
old assignment" else "do probably technically correct thing"
