Interface and function as proposed by cls.
The reasoning behind this function is that cls expressed his
interest to keep memory allocation out of libutf, which is a
very good motive.
This simplifies the function a lot and should also increase the
speed a bit, but the most important factor here is that there's
no malloc anywhere in libutf, making it a lot smaller and more
robust with a smaller attack-surface.
Look at the paste(1) and tr(1) changes for an idiomatic way to
allocate the right amount of space for the Rune-array.
