I guess you can change the conversion table yourself -- see
src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode.  I think you would have to edit the
sjis-0213-2004-std.txt file to add those characters, then run
UCS_to_SHIFT_JIS_2004.pl to generate the updated .map file, then
regenerate the shared lib at
src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs/utf8_and_shift_jis_2004, and
reinstall it.
