(* Decode one sequence starting at s[lo]: cp := the codepoint, next :=
   the index just past it.  FALSE on malformed or truncated input
   (overlong, surrogate, > MaxCodePoint, bad continuation byte). *)

PROCEDURE Encode (cp : UCHAR; VAR buf : ARRAY OF CHAR) : CARDINAL;
(* Encode cp as UTF-8 into buf[0..]; returns the byte count (0 when cp
   is not a Unicode scalar value).  buf needs MaxUTF8Length slots. *)
