Some fancy currency symbols

[brianmed]

Here are some fancy currency symbols. If there is interest, I can update the documentation and possibly add some more tests.

Interesting ... If we do this, I would prefer to keep the code in ASCII and
use the Unicode escaping syntax for double quoted strings such as \x{NNNN}
or \N{NAME}. Also the format_price method accepts a symbol argument, so we
can use that in the test suite to format using these strings. It should
also be possible to set the internal currency_symbol or int_curr_symbol to
one of these strings. Would you like to work on those changes?

No rush. The whole of CPAN seems to be back burnered these days anyway.
If we use the \N{NAME} then the names used for the symbols should match the
Unicode names for them, do you agree?
