For now, I'm adding a `char-general-category' procedure that returns a
symbol: 'lu, 'll, 'co, etc.
* We can revisit the question of symbols versus enumerations if we add
enumerations to R6RS.
* I don't like long names, such as "private use" instead of "Co",
because I'll never remember the long version, and there seems to be
no standard other than the two-letter name. And I used case-folded
symbols, such as 'co instead of 'Co. Other suggestions are welcome.
