RDF-ISSUE-123 (localName chars): PN_CHARS_BASE permits up to U+EFFFF but RFC-3987 stops at U+EFFFD [RDF Turtle]

Raised by: Eric Prud'hommeaux
On product: RDF Turtle

Gregg Kellogg pointed out in http://www.w3.org/mid/49EB390E-BCA6-401B-98EC-F4DD6A44AD0B@greggkellogg.net that Turtle's localNames overrun RFC-3987 iri by two characters. These two Unicode characters are reserved for process-internal use and thusly don't make sense in a global identification scheme.

Should we shave PN_CHARS_BASE down to [#x10000-#xEFFFF]? If this is a bug fix, can we do that without another LC?
