boyer_moore crashes with certain characters in the case table |

The minimal reproducible recipe for crashes in boyer_moore noticed in bug#13041:
1. emacs -Q
2. Eval in *scratch*:
(let ((table (standard-case-table)) canon)
(setq canon (copy-sequence table))
(aset canon #xff59 ?y)
(set-char-table-extra-slot table 1 canon)
(set-char-table-extra-slot table 2 nil)
(set-standard-case-table table))
3. Start an activity that includes a search, e.g. `C-x 8 RET TAB'
The crash in boyer_moore is caused by fullwidth characters like #xff59
whose Unicode properties are:
name: FULLWIDTH LATIN SMALL LETTER Y
decomposition: (wide 121) (wide 'y')
However, the crash doesn't occur when the same fullwidth characters are
set to their downcase counterparts in lisp/international/characters.el:
;; Fullwidth Latin
(setq c #xff21)
(while (<= c #xff3a)
(set-case-syntax-pair c (+ c #x20) tbl)
(modify-category-entry c ?l)
(modify-category-entry (+ c #x20) ?l)
(setq c (1+ c)))

By obstacles I meant crashes that you fixed.
Thanks for that. I'm closing this bug.
