Replaces some additional characters which never appear in resource files before matching the skeleton. This replicates the behaviour of ICU.

I smell a performance issue 😄 We'd now be doing 5 x O(n) lookups over skeleton.
I suggest something like:
- make the special skeleton character mapping a module-level dict (
{'z': 'v', 'k': 'H', 'K': 'h', 'a': '', 'b': ''}) - derive a module-level
frozensetof the keys there - do a first "early" check
if set(skeleton) & special_skeleton_frozen_set:to see if we need to do any work regarding these - ... and if yes, loop over the actual mapping and process the replacements as necessary.
This should probably be benchmarked, though.

I was also a bit worried about that, I'll run some benchmarks so we can compare

Ok here are some results. FTR I'm measuring the current PR against this diff, lmk if this is not what you meant :)

I benchmarked two skeletons, one containing a replacement char, and one not: Hmz, yMMd.
This is the benchmark code:
# skeleton.py
from babel.dates import match_skeleton
from babel import Locale
locale = Locale.parse('en_GB')
# skeleton = 'Hmz'
skeleton = 'yMMd'
assert skeleton not in locale.datetime_skeletons
for _ in range(1000):
match_skeleton(skeleton, locale.datetime_skeletons)Results:
For yMMd
hyperfine 'git checkout format-skeleton && python skeleton.py' 'git checkout format-skeleton-optimized && python skeleton.py'
Benchmark 1: git checkout format-skeleton && python skeleton.py
Time (mean ± σ): 308.1 ms ± 7.2 ms [User: 290.7 ms, System: 17.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 292.9 ms … 318.0 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: git checkout format-skeleton-optimized && python skeleton.py
Time (mean ± σ): 314.3 ms ± 9.9 ms [User: 296.6 ms, System: 17.6 ms]
Range (min … max): 297.8 ms … 333.4 ms 10 runs
Summary
'git checkout format-skeleton && python skeleton.py' ran
1.02 ± 0.04 times faster than 'git checkout format-skeleton-optimized && python skeleton.py'For Hmz:

Summary
'git checkout format-skeleton && python skeleton.py' ran
1.01 ± 0.07 times faster than 'git checkout format-skeleton-optimized && python skeleton.py'Looks like the optimized version using the set check is actually a bit slower 🤔

friendly reminder @akx :) Which version should we go with?

Let's keep it simple and use the obvious version now :) Thanks for measuring.
