perlebcdic: Add list of IBM 1047 controls mapped to C1 names
This has caused some confusion.
IBM boxes have 65 control characters in the 0-255 range, same as
ASCII/Latin1. The low 32 ASCII range ones, are essentially equivalent
between the systems.
For the remaining ones, someone long ago (perhaps IBM) devised an
essentially arbitrary mapping between the sets. This is used by
UTF-EBCDIC, so Perl uses this mapping.
This commit adds to perlebcdic the mapping based on 1047. I didn't
check the 037 code page.

-----------
Add fromCTRL() and expand toCTRL() perlapi entry
fromCTRL() is a convenience macro whose meaning is clearer than the
previous alternative
