[BlindMath] UEB Geometry and Algebra codes

Although those tables are a starting point, there are literally thousands
of symbols used in math. A couple of years ago I started looking into
getting a table of UEB math symbols together to increase liblouis's support
of UEB and discovered that there were many symbols missing, including
literally hundreds in Nemeth code not in UEB. I still haven't improved the
UEB table in liblouis. This began a conversation with someone who worked on
UEB math and eventually some of the concerns were sent on to International
Council on English Braille, Code Maintenance Committee. Since someone else
volunteered to push the tables forward, I have not followed where things
stand in the last year and whether the committee came up with a more
complete set. If they have, it is not on their website (I just looked).

I don't want to publicly lists the names/email of those involved because I
don't have their permission, but if someone wants to privately email me
because they want to produce a more complete table, I'll include you in a
conversation with them.
