Description: Adds to following symbols to the list of “word symbols”, so that Jolla text
prediction (XT9) will consider them part of words to learn rather than
splitting at them:
* Typographic apostrophe character (’ = U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK)
* Typographic hyphen characters (­‐‑ = U+00AD SOFT HYPHEN, U+2010 HYPEN, U+2011 NON-BREAKING HYPHEN)
* Middle dot variants used in French gendering (·‧⸱⋅ = U+00B7 MIDDLE DOT, U+22C5 DOT OPERATOR, U+2E31 WORD SEPERATOR MIDDLE DOT)
* Colon and underscore characters used in German gendering (:∶_ = , U+003A COLON, U+2236 RATIO, U+005F LOW LINE)

Included in default XT9 packaging:
* ASCII Hyphen (- = U+002D HYPEN-MINUS)
* ASCII Apostrophe (' = U+0027 APOSTROPHE)

Symbols NOT learned as part of words when encountered at word end:
* All Hyphen characters (-­‐‑)
* All middle dot variants (·‧⸱⋅)
* All colon and underscore variants (:∶_)

Moved before trailing space when entered immediately after tapping word completion:
* Default punctuation set (,.?!)
* Color characters (:∶)

Would be nice:
* Use configuration page with symbols
