keysym-utf: replace the Unicode characters for leftanglebracket and rightanglebracket

Looking at leftanglebracket

- The standard[1] does not specify any Unicode value for it.

- The keysym list keysymdef.h in x11proto[2] says U+27E9 MATHEMATICAL
  RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET in a comment.

- The keysym->unicode list in xkbcommon which comes from [3] has U+2329
  LEFT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET.

- The keysym->unicode list in Xlib[4] has U+2039 SINGLE LEFT-POINTING
  ANGLE QUOTATION MARK.

[4] https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libX11/tree/src/xlibi18n/imKStoUCS.c

The symbols we are using, {LEFT,RIGHT}-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET, are
deprecated according to Unicode[5]:

    These characters are deprecated and are strongly discouraged for
    mathematical use because of their canonical equivalence to CJK
    punctuation.

Hence, switch to the MATHEMATICAL codepoints which seem to be the best
fit.
