-- Provides UTF-8 aware string functions implemented in pure lua:
-- * utf8len(s)
-- * utf8sub(s, i, j)
-- * utf8reverse(s)
-- * utf8char(unicode)
-- * utf8unicode(s, i, j)
-- * utf8gensub(s, sub_len)
-- * utf8find(str, regex, init, plain)
-- * utf8match(str, regex, init)
-- * utf8gmatch(str, regex, all)
-- * utf8gsub(str, regex, repl, limit)
--
-- If utf8data.lua (containing the lower<->upper case mappings) is loaded, these
-- additional functions are available:
-- * utf8upper(s)
-- * utf8lower(s)
--
-- All functions behave as their non UTF-8 aware counterparts with the exception
-- that UTF-8 characters are used instead of bytes for all units.
