[alreq] Action 90: File a github issue with review of the characters table

ntounsi has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/alreq:

== Action 90: File a github issue with review of the characters table ==
Review of the [characters table](http://w3c.github.io/alreq/#characters-tables) and the changes needed for CLDR.
(Other details may be needed for this review)

Letters
U+0671  ARABIC LETTER ALEF WASLA is marked X not used.
Should be marked as auxiliary for Arabic. May be check-marked for Persian

Diacritics 
U+0670 ARABIC LETTER SUPERSCRIPT ALEF, is used auxiliary for some Koran publications. Should be marked * instead of X

Some punctuation and symbols 
U+0020 SPACE
U+002A ASTERISK *
U+002F SOLIDUS /
U+003C LESS-THAN < 
U+003D EQUALS =
U+003E GREATER-THAN >
are marked X not used for Arabic. Should be check-marked.

Control characters
Some of control characters (at least those related to Bidi), [U+202A..U+202E] and [U+2066..U+2069], ZWJ & ZNWJ, are not language related. Think they should be marked as auxiliary. Assuming that they are not intended for normal, but special use.
