#5519: Some unicode symbols are not allow in literal characters or strings

-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
{{{ main = putChar 'ₖ' }}}
This program is rejected with following error message:
lexical error in string/character literal at character '\8342'
There is at least a few other characters with the same issue, for
instance this whole string should be accepted:
{{{ "ₕₖₗₘₙₒₚᵣₛₜᵤᵥₓ" }}}
A related issue is that GHCi do not let me paste these characters either.
