Conformance

The library is designed for Unicode Standard version 3.2. Normalisers (NFD, NFKD, NFC, NFKC) and collator (string comparison) pass the conformance tests defined Unicode Technical Reports. (see the relevant part of camomile-test.) The collator is also tested to Canadian, Thai and Japanese standards with their locales. There are no problem except handling ΓΈ in Canadian standard.
