I don't see why Cuis should support anything besides bytes, UTF-8
and the conversion from and to UTF-8 to any other of the broken
character encodings in the world.

Participants of this thread should check against the great utf-8
everywhere site: https://utf8everywhere.org/#myths

Juan did when pondering about Cuis string support.
