This adds an optional argument to generated getters for string fields to
specify the encoding type and overloads the createString() function. It's
now possible to use either JavaScript UTF-16 string objects or C-style
UTF-8 byte arrays (Uint8Array) for string data.
JavaScript uses UTF-16 but FlatBuffers uses UTF-8. This commit tests the code
that does the conversion between the two encodings. The last entry in the array
is tricky because each code point actually requires two UTF-16 code units,
unlike the other examples. The current JSON output of flatc actually handles
this case incorrectly (it generates invalid JSON with UTF-8 code units). The
generated JavaScript code passes these tests fine, however.
