Summary: CJK codecs list incomplete

Initial Comment:
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/whatsnew/node7.
html states that various CJK encodings have been 
added, but the list given there does not match the list 
on 
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/node128.html.

In particular, missing from the latter list are all of the 
aliases with hyphens:

shift-jis, shift-jisx0213, euc-jp, euc-jisx0213, iso-2022-
jp, iso-2022-jp-1, iso-2022-jp-2, iso-2022-jp-3, iso-
2022-jp-ext, euc-kr, iso-2022-kr

Since I successfully ran codecs.lookup() tests on a few 
of the hyphenated aliases, I assume that the omission 
of the hyphenated versions in the docs is merely an 
oversight.

Reopened to consider the consistence with non-cjk codecs.
All the non-cjk codecs are written with hyphen even if their
realname is with underscore. (eg. iso8859-1 and iso8859_1.py)
Will changing cjk codecs's codec/alias names to use not
underscores but hyphens make docs more friendly?

All hyphens are translated as underscores in encoding lookups.
So we may not need to provide encoding list with hyphens
additionally.
