sync fallbacks

The current final fallbacks for paper size are Letter for en_CA, en_US, es_PR and es_US (i.e. taken from a quick look at an older glibc list) and A4 for every thing else. Its unlikely that francophone's in Canada stick a A4 sheet into their printer while their English speaking neighbours use a Letter sheet, and so on.

A more up-to-date list is available from the CLDR

http://unicode.org/repos/cldr-tmp/trunk/diff/supplemental/territory_language_information.html

attached is a patch to sync these fallbacks with the latest 1.8.1 CLDR table

Looks like a good idea to me. Always nice to cite some standard...
