Ah, it would probably is a good idea to say what you did to prepare
this patch in this case, like:

    Unicode 15 that was released recentry [0] includes several
    additional zero/double width characters.

    Update unicode-width.h table by cd'ing to contrib/update-unicode/
    and running update_unicode.sh script there.

    [0] https://home.unicode.org/announcing-the-unicode-standard-version-15-0/

or something, I guess.

Thanks.
