This causes the generated file ebcdic_tables.h to be #included by
utfebcdic.h instead of the hand-coded tables that were formerly there.
This makes it much easier to add or remove support for EBCDIC code
pages.
The UTF-EBCDIC-related tables for 037 and POSIX-BC are somewhat modified
from what they were before. They were changed by hand minimally a long
time ago to prevent segfaults, but in so doing, they lost an important
sorting characteristic of UTF-EBCDIC. The machine-generated versions
retain the sorting, while also not doing the segfaults. utfebcdic.h has
more detail about this, regarding tr16.
