It is a superset of Korean encoding, EUC-KR.
It is default locale of Korean Windows.
Is it different with EUC-KR?
Yes. CP949 is superset of EUC-KR. Some extra characters have been added by Microsoft.
But many people call CP949 as EUC-KR confusingly (even if they encoded it as CP949).
It is because WHATWG Encoding Standard calls CP949as "EUC-KR" (in fact, it is CP949).
This program only supports EUC-KR, not CP949. So I added CP949 support.
Imported CP949 detector from sv24-archive/charade@ae6dd2 under LGPL 2.1 Edited CP949 detector as that code has some bugs (Class 8-Related bugs)
Added alternative naming in EncodingShortName
