/****h* silcutil/SILC UTF-8 Interface
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 *
 * Interface for the UTF-8 Unicode encoding form.  These routines provides
 * applications full UTF-8 and Unicode support.  It supports UTF-8 encoding
 * to and decoding from myriad of other character encodings.

/****f* silcutil/SilcUTF8API/silc_utf8_encode
 *
 * SYNOPSIS
 *
 *    SilcUInt32 silc_utf8_encode(const unsigned char *bin, SilcUInt32 bin_len,
 *                                SilcStringEncoding bin_encoding,
 *                                unsigned char *utf8, SilcUInt32 utf8_size);
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 *
 *    Encodes the string `bin' of which encoding is `bin_encoding' to the
 *    UTF-8 encoding into the buffer `utf8' which is of size of `utf8_size'.
 *    Returns the length of the UTF-8 encoded string, or zero (0) on error.
 *    By default `bin_encoding' is ASCII, and the caller needs to know the
 *    encoding of the input string if it is anything else.

 * DESCRIPTION
 *
 *    Decodes UTF-8 encoded string `utf8' to string of which encoding is
 *    to be `bin_encoding', into the `bin' buffer of size of `bin_size'.
 *    Returns the length of the decoded buffer, or zero (0) on error.
 *    By default `bin_encoding' is ASCII, and the caller needs to know to
 *    which encoding the output string is to be encoded if ASCII is not
 *    desired.
