  refactor case mappings (again)

There is no more titlecase function.  Instead there is a suite
of mapping functions appropriate to apply on a word-by-word basis
(tc, tclc, and tcuc), and a wordcase function that defaults to
normal capitalization rules for English (without attempting to
handle exceptions).

Under what circumstances is tcuc useful? I'm currently suffering from a
lack of imagination as to when somebody would ever want that rather than
just uc.
