Max bytes for UTF

[Ruslan Zasukhin]

Hi All,

    UTF8    -- maximum 4 bytes for some special chars
                probably this can be music notes or cards.

    UTF16   -- usually 2 bytes.

But keep in mind that exists USC-2 unicode,
Which later was extended to USC-4 standard, where 4 bytes are used per char.

As far as I understand USC-4 is NOT spread yet.

Even IMB ICU use UTF16 as default average char size.



So in theory yes, UTF16 also can take

    4 bytes = 2 code items = 1 char.
