Research direction
Start by comparing windows10_14959.txt with win10_14959_py36.txt, using pycp_ctypes.py to understand the native Windows reference and codepage_table.csv for the proposed mappings. Trace where the affected code pages are defined and add coverage for the non-Windows behavior; done means the mappings match the corrected Windows output without regressing other Unicode mappings.
