+ - move the XS code for those to universal.c (so in miniperl)

+ Log: Infrastructure to use UTF-EBCDIC rather than UTF-8 as the internal
+ encoding on EBCDIC platforms. This has property that U+0000..U+009F i.e.
+ a superset of ASCII are invariant under the encoding. This is EBCDIC
+ friendly as an encoded string can be looked at as being EBCDIC by lexer
+ sprintf("%d",...) etc. in same manner that a UTF-8 string be considered
+ ASCII on ASCII machines.
+
+ - re-arrange utf8.h to get ASCII specific vs Unicode generic bits
+ seperate.
+ - Add some more macros to comprehend different shift amounts and
+ possible swizzle in UTF-EBCDIC vs UTF-8. Change utf8.c to use them.
+ - add utfebcdic.h which provides UTF-EBCDIC versions of the macros,
+ and conditionaly #include it.

+ EBCDIC build as yet untested. ASCII still fails the one test.
