Double right arrowhead?

[Joao S. O. Bueno]

Ok, so I just took some time to look more carefully - and here they are:
```python
% pip install terminedia
from terminedia.unicode import lookup
...

lookup(r"DOUBLE (SUCCEEDS|PRECEDES)")
# Out[27]:
# [Character(code=0x2ABB, value='⪻', name='DOUBLE PRECEDES',
category='Sm', width='N'),
# Character(code=0x2ABC, value='⪼', name='DOUBLE SUCCEEDS',
category='Sm', width='N')]
```
