Use Unicode 13.0 (beta)
Unicode has changed its yearly release cycle so that the final version is not available until early March of the year. This year it is March 10, 2020. However, all changes planned were finalized in early January, and the actual computer files have been updated to their presumably final substantive versions. The release has been authorized without further review needed. The release is awaiting final documentation additions, and soak time of the beta to verify there are no glitches. This commit causes Perl to participate in that soak. I don't anticipate any problems, and likely the only substantive change upon the official release will be to update perldelta. Comments in the files supplied by Unicode will likely also change to indicate these are no longer beta. There were very few changes affecting existing characters; most of the changes involved adding new characters, including emoji. The break characteristics of some existing characters were changed (GCB, LB, WB, and SB properties). The only perl code I really had to change to cope with the new release was about rules in the Line Break property, dealing around ellipses (...) and certain East Asian characters next to opening parentheses. If there are problems, we can revert this at any time, and ship with 12.0.
