Closes #50911. Closes #50913.

There were a few oddball symbols prefixed with \up (for "upright") for no reason that I can tell, ala the LaTeX "upgreek" package, even though we don't use an \up prefix for other upright Greek letters (e.g. we have \alpha, not \upalpha, even though it isn't italicized — we have \italpha for italic alpha).

Not breaking since this is just a UI thing.

(In practice, I doubt many people use these symbols. e.g. \upMu is Μ, which looks a lot like the Latin M. But there is no reason to have the \up prefix here. It seems to have just been an automated abbreviation-import snafu. And \upkoppa 'ϟ' (U+O3DF) is visually quite distinctive though I've never seen it used in math, not to mention lowercase — it's definitely goofy to have an \up prefix for it.)
