Here's the proposed control-file to replace jis0201.flc. Rather than
mapping the first 256 byte values to JIS X 201, it makes use of figlet's
ISO 2022 support. So you can use low- and high-value bytes, or you can
use SHIFT OUT and SHIFT IN, or whatever.

Also, it maps the katakana code points to Unicode full-width katakana
characters, rather than half-width katakana, which, while probably
incorrect, is what the banner font expects; as far as I know, there are
no other fonts for katakana, other than the katakana.flf in the
international figlet fonts tarball [available upstream]; which doesn't
use Unicode codepoints for the katakana characters, but just maps
uppercase ASCII characters to the katakana.
