Both the UTR #22 XML format and ICU's .ucm format provide syntax for the distinction between
roundtrip mappings (A maps to B and B maps back to A) and one-way mappings/fallbacks/reverse
mappings (A maps to B but B does not map back to A). You can achieve this in many ways and formats,
but "Format A." itself does not support it.
