    I've started a (private atm, will be rebased a few times) branch for the #musl locale project merge.

    First some preliminaries. Bumping the Unicode character data from version 12 to version 17.

    Only +10% size to iswalpha/iswpunct tables, +5% to upper/lower case mappings. About +20% to wcwidth tables, probably from all the emoji. 🙃

    Kolejny ciekawy problem z #musl libc: `getaddrinfo()` wypełnia pole `.ai_canonname`, nawet jeśli `flags` nie zawiera `AI_CANONNAME`. Niby to nic wielkiego, ale wystarcza, żeby popsuć testy #DNSPython. Technicznie rzecz biorąc, może to być też niezgodne z #POSIX, ale nie mam pewności.

    Another curious #musl libc issue: `getaddrinfo()` fills `.ai_canonname` even if `AI_CANONNAME` is not passed in `flags`. Apparently not a big deal, except that it breaks the tests of #DNSPython when present unexpectedly. Technically, it may also not comply to #POSIX, though I'm not sure.
