Fix bug #11: Test for balanced "slanted" UTF-8 quotation marks 8220/8221

     4 gutcheck has only a very limited support for windows-1252, but it does
     5 recognise some characters as letters.
     6 
     7 Žal at the start of a paragraph would throw a warning if its first letter
     8 wasn't recognised since the paragraph would then appear to start with
     9 something other than a capital letter. Æsop likewise proves that ash is
    10 seen as a letter (otherwise a warning would be given for a period not
    11 followed by a capital letter). Œcolampadius does the same for œthel.
    12 
    13 Ÿ-decay is something I don't even pretend to understand, but I'm quite
    14 happy to abuse it to test that strange letter.
    15 
    16 Contrawise, we can prove that some characters are _not_ seen as letters
    17 since neither 2×2=4 nor 4÷2=2 produce a warning (if they had been seen
    18 as letters, we would expect ‘Query digit’ warnings).

    20 The trademark symbol ™ and œthel might,for whatever reason, confuse the
    21 column numbers in warnings.
