[jlreq] 3.1.10 "¢" listed as prefix (#350)

bluesunTL has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/jlreq:

== 3.1.10 "¢" listed as prefix ==
In [section 3.1.10d]( https://www.w3.org/TR/jlreq/#unbreakable_character_sequences ), the English translation lists the cent sign "¢" is listed as a prefix instead of a postfix.

"Between prefixed abbreviations (cl-12) (YEN SIGN "¥"，DOLLAR SIGN "$"，CENT SIGN "¢" etc.) and the following arabic or ideographic numeral (see Figure 82). The reason is that such character sequences are to be handled as one unit."
"前置省略記号（cl-12）（円記号[¥] (YEN SIGN)，ドル記号[$] (DOLLAR SIGN)など）とその後ろにくるアラビア数字・漢数字との間（Figure 82）．それらの文字列を一体として扱いたいためである．"

-----

In other parts of the document, the cent sign is considered a postfix, and being a postfix matches with its general English usage, so the English translation appears to be in error.

A potential version equivalent to the Japanese text could be as follows:
"Between prefixed abbreviations (cl-12) (YEN SIGN "¥"，DOLLAR SIGN "$" etc.) and the following arabic or ideographic numeral (see Figure 82). The reason is that such character sequences are to be handled as one unit."
