I eventually decided to write new commands, because the above
japanese-* commands are too specific to the Japanese users: for
example, they convert kana characters as well.

So there are now new commands fullwidth-region, fullwidth-word,
halfwidth-region, and halfwidth-word, which will be in Emacs 31 when
it is released.

With that, I'm closing this bug.
