I've done many different experiments and everywhere the result is within
the margin of the v2 patch result.

The v3 patch contains the following changes:
1. Removed storing Unicode codepoints (unsigned int) in all tables.
2. Reduce the main table from 3003 to 1677 (duplicates removed) records.
3. Replace pointer (essentially uint64_t) with uin8_t in the main table.
4. Partitioning the main table into tables by case type.
5. Reduced the time to find a record in the table.
6. Reduce the size of the final object file.

Different denser packing of data led to more complicated code, but the
result remained essentially the same.

Of course, the main thing that has been accomplished:
Increase processing speed.
Reduce the size of tables and, consequently, the size of the object file.
