* libguile/srfi-13.c (compare_strings): Switch the "longer" and
"shorter" arguments. All the callers of this function assumed that
shorter came first. Fixes (string<? "abc" "abcd").
This adds full Unicode strings as a datatype, and it adds some
minimal functionality. The terminal and port encoding is assumed
to be ISO-8859-1. Non-ISO-8859-1 characters are written or
input as string character escapes.
The string character escapes now have 3 forms: \xXX \uXXXX and
\UXXXXXX, for unprintable characters that have 2, 4 or 6 hex digits.
The process for writing to strings has been modified. There is now a
function scm_i_string_start_writing that does the copy-on-write
conversion if necessary.
To compile strings that may be wide, the VM storage of strings and
string-likes has changed.
Most string-using functions have not yet been updated and may break
when used with wide strings.

charset cases, count chars kept and build a string in a second pass,
rather than using a cons cell for every char kept. Use a shared
substring when nothing removed (such sharing is allowed by the srfi).
scm_string_tabulate, string_upcase_x, string_down_case_x,
string_titlecase_x, string_reverse_x, scm_string_tokenize): Use
size_t instead of int for indices into strings. Make sure that no
over- or underflow occurs. Thanks to Andreas Vögele!
(scm_xsubstring, scm_string_xcopy_x): Use ints for 'extended'
indices, which can also be negative.
scm_i_string_chars et al. Copious scm_remember_upto_heres have
been inserted. Made sure that no internal string pointer is used
across a SCM_TICK or a possible GC.
