When using i18n::XChracterClassification::parseAnyToken or parsePredefinedToken
methdos, one can use ANY_NUMBER token type to specify any number, whether it is
ascii or unicode.  This is very convenient.

However, to do the opposite is not equally convenient, i.e., to pick up all
characters until a character of ANY_NUMBER is found.  An addition of a new parse
token that qualifies anything that is not an ANY_NUMBER would be very, very 
useful.

ANY_LETTER, for example, does not pick up characters such as '/', '\', ')' ,'(',
and so on.  But sometimes you want to pick up everything but numbers including
those that ANY_LETTER doesn't pick up.

So, I propose an addition of a new parse token, which can be named
ANY_NON_NUMBER (or whatever sounds better), that qualifies any character that is
not ANY_NUMBER.  In other words, ANY_NON_NUMBER || ANY_NUMBER will qualify any
character in existence.

This will certainly ease my work on the natural sort implementation (Issue 
26565).

Thanks,

Kohei
