Hello, FPC developers' list

Seems time has come to start think of support for utf8string type in free pascal. We need it fot unicode in LCL.

I searched compiler code to look how WideString is handled and I want to ask about utf8string handling. Should it be the same way? So I can copy-paste most of WideString code (for example: tokens.pas add _CUSTRING, _CUCHAR; symconst.pas add st_utf8string; and similar things in other places).

Best regards,
Paul Ishenin.
