Translate Japanese Kanji to Chinese Hanzi (simplified and traditional)

The chinese character mapping table is attributed to:

```
Chenhui Chu, Toshiaki Nakazawa and Sadao Kurohashi:
Chinese Characters Mapping Table of Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese
In Proceedings of the Eighth Conference on International Language Resources and Evaluation
(LREC2012), pp.2149-2152, Istanbul, Turkey, (2012.5).

Since the mapping contains questionable entries, there's an additional filtering based on a japanese kanji list (2310 entries).


# TODO

Filter simplified chinese entries based on GB2312 list in repo.
