2.3.  Degree of stricture. How strict are we going to make utf-8-strict?
    a. simply make use of UTF8_ALLOW_* in utf8.h ?
    b. unmapped codepoints banned as well?
    IMHO a. is strict enough since mapped codepoints are subject to
    increase as Unicode Standard updates.

It seems obvious to me that 'a' is what we want and this is what my
proposed patch implements.  The goal is to make sure that we never
generate or accepts code points that Unicode has explicitly declared
as non-chars.

My goal is just to make the "UTF-8" encoder pass the test at
http://smontagu.damowmow.com/utf8test.html.
