utf8.c: Add UTF-8 validation and utility functions
There are various places in Asterisk - specifically in regards to database integration - where having some kind of UTF-8 validation would be beneficial. This patch adds: * Functions to validate that a given string contains only valid UTF-8 sequences. * A function to copy a string (similar to ast_copy_string) stopping when an invalid UTF-8 sequence is encountered. * A UTF-8 validator that allows for progressive validation. All of this is based on the excellent UTF-8 decoder by Björn Höhrmann. More information is available here: https://bjoern.hoehrmann.de/utf-8/decoder/dfa/ The API was written in such a way that should allow us to replace the implementation later should we determine that we need something more comprehensive.
