Description

MFstable/10 r250883,r251314:

r250883 (by ed):

Add <uchar.h>.

The <uchar.h> header, part of C11, adds a small number of utility
functions for 16/32-bit "universal" characters, which may or may not be
UTF-16/32. As our wchar_t is already ISO 10646, simply add light-weight
wrappers around wcrtomb() and mbrtowc().

While there, also add (non-yet-standard) _l functions, similar to the
ones we already have for the other locale-dependent functions.

r251314 (by ed):

Add libiconv based versions of *c16*() and *c32*().

I initially thought wchar_t was locale independent, but this seems to be
only the case on Linux. This means that we cannot depend on the *wc*()
routines to implement *c16*() and *c32*(). Instead, use the Citrus
libiconv that is part of libc.

I'll see if there is anything I can do to make the existing functions
somewhat useful in case the system is built without libiconv in the
nearby future. If not, I'll simply remove the broken implementations.
