utf8_iter provides iteration by `char` over potentially-invalid UTF-8 `&[u8]`
such that UTF-8 errors are handled according to the WHATWG Encoding Standard.

Iteration by `Result<char,Utf8CharsError>` is provided as an alternative that
distinguishes UTF-8 errors from U+FFFD appearing in the input.

An implementation of `char_indices()` analogous to the same-name method on
`str` is also provided.

Key parts of the code are copypaste from the UTF-8 to UTF-16 conversion code
in `encoding_rs`, which was optimized for speed in the case of valid input.
The implementation here uses the structure that was found to be fast in the
`encoding_rs` context but the structure hasn't been benchmarked in this
context.

This is a `no_std` crate.
