RFC UXStrings package.

RFC UXStrings package.

[Blady]

UXStrings is now a standalone library available on Github.
https://github.com/Blady-Com/UXStrings

Comments on specifications are welcome.

A first implementation POC is provided. UTF-8 encoding is chosen for 
internal representation. The Strings_Edit library is used for UTF-8 
encoding management.
http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de/ada/strings_edit.htm

This implementation which is only for demonstrate the possible usages of 
UXString has many limitations as for instance there is no memory 
deallocation. Only few API are implemented.

A test program is also provided with some features working.

See readme for full details.

Thanks Vadim and Luke for the links on these projects.

I'll have a look on them and I will surely make profit from them.
