Issue ID: 20134
Summary: autodecode should use replacementDchar rather than
throwing on invalid
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: phobos

Currently, when the autodecoder encounters an invalid UTF sequence, it throws a
UTFexception. In contrast, the byUTF conversions return a replacementDchar
instead, as does foreach() when decoding.
This enhancement would make the behavior consistent, with the additional
benefits of character processing being @nogc and nothrow and even pure.
