Terminal Charsets Proposal

Well, I ran out of time -- gotta go now, probably won't be back till
Monday, so there's no way to get these to the appropriate parties on
paper by Fedex on November 2nd. Maybe November 3rd?...

Anyway, the proposal is now split into 3: regular glyphs, control pics,
and hex bytes.

Michael Everson's glyph map is included, as well as an archive of the
email discussion and a document from SNI about their glyphs.

I would have liked to spend more time polishing -- and will do so before
I send them in for real. In the meantime, any comments will be
appreciated (but not responded to for a few days).
