[Feature] Allow Unicode class Lm in XAML identifiers

[vsfeedback]

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

The XAML specification for identifiers (here) does not include Unicode class Lm in identifiers. But these are allowed in the C# specification (here).

When I use an Lm letter in my C# identifier and then x:Bind it to XAML, the XAML IntelliSense in Visual Studio recognizes the letter. But then when I try to compile it, the XAML generates an error saying that the identifier could not be found.

My suggestion is to include the Lm character class as if it were a LetterCharacter in the XAML syntax. This will bring XAML and C# identifier parsing into alignment.
