a2c10f6189 unicode: Support characters beyond the first unicode plane
We used 16-bit variables to store the 'character code' everywhere but
this won't let us represent anything beyond U+FFFF.

This patch changes those variables to a custom type that can be 32 or 16
bits depending on the build, and adjusts numerous internal APIs and
datastructures to match.  This includes:

 * utf8decode() and friends
 * font manipulation, caching, rendering, and generation
 * on-screen keyboard
 * FAT filesystem (parsing and generating utf16 LFNs)
 * WIN32 simulator platform code

Note that this patch doesn't _enable_ >16bit unicode support; a followup
patch will turn that on for appropriate targets.

Appears to work on:

  * hosted linux, native, linux simulator in both 16/32-bit modes.

Needs testing on:

  * windows and macos simulator (16bit+32bit)

d05c59f35b internals: Support characters beyond the first unicode plane (WIP)
We used 16-bit variables to store the 'character code' everywhere but
this won't let us represent anything beyond U+FFFF.

This patch changes those variables to a custom type that can be 32 or 16
bits depending on the build, and adjusts numerous internal APIs and
datastructures to match.  This includes:

 * utf8decode() and friends
 * on-screen keyboard
 * font manipulation, caching, rendering, and generation
 * VFAT code parses and generates utf16 dirents
 * WIN32 simulator reads and writes utf16 filenames

Note that this patch doesn't _enable_ >16bit unicode support; a followup
patch will turn that on for appropriate targets.

Known bugs:

  * Native players in 32-bit unicode mode generate mangled filename
    entries if they include UTF16 surrogate codepoints.  Root cause
    is unclear, and may reside in core dircache code.

Needs testing on:

 * windows simulator (16bit+32bit)
