I've checked in a whole bunch of newly generated codecs which now make use of the faster charmap decoding variant added by Walter a short while ago.

Please let me know if you find any problems.

I think we should work on eliminating the decoding_map variables. There are some codecs which rely on them being present in other codecs (e.g. koi8_u.py is based on koi8_r.py); however, this could be updated to use, say

decoding_table = codecs.update_decoding_map(koi8_r.decoding_table, { 0x00a4: 0x0454, # CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER UKRAINIAN IE 0x00a6: 0x0456, # CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER BYELORUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN I 0x00a7: 0x0457, # CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER YI (UKRAINIAN) 0x00ad: 0x0491, # CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER UKRAINIAN GHE WITH UPTURN 0x00b4: 0x0404, # CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER UKRAINIAN IE 0x00b6: 0x0406, # CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER BYELORUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN I 0x00b7: 0x0407, # CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER YI (UKRAINIAN) 0x00bd: 0x0490, # CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER UKRAINIAN GHE WITH UPTURN })

With all these cross-references gone, the decoding_maps could also go.
