Applied, r10296
Thanks.
I've added some code to handle strings withgout null terminator passed
to DrawText, ExtTextOut, GetTextExtentPoint (one cannot assign them to a
string)
However this code is not ok. It copies to litle chars.
These functions expect in the Count param, the number of Characters and
not the the number of bytes/words a string occupies.
So to do it right,
1) we need to know the number of bytes a given utf8 array of char would
use.
2) copy those chars to a (utf) string
3) pass this string to Utf8Decode/Utf8ToAnsi
4) if we calculated the count, pass this count to the winapi, to the
winapi doesn't have to count the characters again.
