Hi all,

This is version 2 of the South Korean (ko_KR) locale update.

Changes in v2:
- Updated the author name from nickname to real name (Jiho Lee).
- Included the missing LC_NAME (name_fmt) update which was omitted 
  in the previous accidental submission.

This patch updates LC_ADDRESS and LC_NAME to reflect modern South 
Korean standards and Korea Post guidelines.

Best regards,
Jiho Lee

Update the South Korean (ko_KR) locale to reflect official standards:
- LC_ADDRESS: Follow the Large-to-Small hierarchy (Country, Postcode,
  City, Road, Recipient) as per Korea Post guidelines.
  (https://www.koreapost.go.kr/kpost/subIndex/135.do?pSiteIdx=125)
- LC_NAME: Follow the standard Korean order (Surname + Given Name)
  without Western-style salutations or tabs.

    * localedata/locales/ko_KR (LC_ADDRESS): Update postal_fmt.
    * localedata/locales/ko_KR (LC_NAME): Update name_fmt to "%f%g".
