/* This file contains the code to translate from WINDOWS-1252 (native
   charset used in English version of Morrowind) to UTF-8. The library
   is designed to be extened to support more source encodings later,
   which means that we may add support for Russian, Polish and Chinese
   files and so on.

   The code does not depend on any external library at
   runtime. Instead, it uses a pregenerated table made with iconv (see
   gen_iconv.cpp and the Makefile) which is located in tables_gen.hpp.

   This is both faster and uses less dependencies. The tables would
   only need to be regenerated if we are adding support more input
   encodings. As such, there is no need to make the generator code
   platform independent.

   The library is optimized for the case of pure ASCII input strings,
   which is the vast majority of cases at least for the English
   version. A test of my version of Morrowind.esm got 130 non-ASCII vs
   236195 ASCII strings, or less than 0.06% of strings containing
   non-ASCII characters.

   To optmize for this, ff the first pass of the string does not find
   any non-ASCII characters, the entire string is passed along without
   any modification.

   Most of the non-ASCII strings are books, and are quite large. (The
   non-ASCII characters are typically starting and ending quotation
   marks.) Within these, almost all the characters are ASCII. For this
   purpose, the library is also optimized for mostly-ASCII contents
   even in the cases where some conversion is necessary.
