Adding support for Cantonese (need to be merged with the original version)

  1. Handle tones by pre-processor following by edge cases for duplicate tonal sounds handling in post-processor; additional mapping transformations.
  2. References: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Cantonese https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:IPAc-yue
  3. Test cases derived from Wikipedia IPA Table and Wikipedia Jyutping for each test word (original version makes some mistakes here).
