[iip] Dandas are wrapped alone to the beginning of a line (#77)

r12a has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/iip:

== Dandas are wrapped alone to the beginning of a line ==
In general, there are no issues with ordinary Tamil line-breaking. Line-break opportunities occur at the spaces between words, and characters that are not supposed to appear at a line start do not.

The exception to the latter is that <span class="codepoint" translate="no"><span lang="hi">।</span> [<a href="devanagari#char0964"><span class="uname">U+0964 DEVANAGARI DANDA</span></a>]</span> and <span class="codepoint" translate="no"><span lang="hi">॥</span> [<a href="devanagari#char0965"><span class="uname">U+0965 DEVANAGARI DOUBLE DANDA</span></a>]</span> will wrap alone to the beginning of a line if there is a space between them and the previous word. This is the case for <span class="fail">all browsers</span>.

Test: Apply the string இஇஇஇஇஇஇஇ இ । இ ॥ <a href="https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/css-text/interactive/int-line-break-000">to this </a>interactive test.

The impact of this is advanced, although it would be good to fix it.
