More precise error message for unencodable `\u` escapes
The surrogate code points U+D800 to U+DFFF are valid code points but are not Unicode scalar values. This commit makes the error message more accurately reflect what is actually allowed in `\u` escape sequences. From https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch03.pdf: > D71 High-surrogate code point: A Unicode code point in the range U+D800 to U+DBFF. > D73 Low-surrogate code point: A Unicode code point in the range U+DC00 to U+DFFF. > > 3.9 Unicode Encoding Forms > D76 Unicode scalar value: Any Unicode code point except high-surrogate and low-surrogate code points.
