Subject: 28.0.50; japanese-hankaku unnatural or misconversion results
Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2021 18:01:46 +0900

1. japanese-hankaku[-region] with ASCII-ONLY option converts Japanese
panctuation characters and prolonged sound mark to ascii.

(japanese-hankaku "ケーキ、ドーナツ。" t)
-> "ケ-キ,ド-ナツ."

the result is very unnatural because "ー", "、" and "。" are normally
used among Japanese characters which are not converted to hankaku in
this case.  I hope they are kept as is (the result should be
"ケーキ、ドーナツ。").


2. japanese-hankaku[-region] without ASCII-ONLY option and
japanese-zenkaku[-region] fails to convert Latin punctuations.

(japanese-zenkaku "A, B, C.")
-> "Ａ、　Ｂ、　Ｃ。"

(japanese-hankaku "Ａ，Ｂ，Ｃ．")
-> "A､B､C｡"

They should be "Ａ，　Ｂ，　Ｃ．" and "A,B,C." respectively.


Below patch fixes problems.
