Change how GF deals with character encodings in grammar files
1. The default encoding is changed from Latin-1 to UTF-8.
2. Alternate encodings should be specified as "--# -coding=enc", the old
"flags coding=enc" declarations have no effect but are still checked for
consistency.
3. A transitional warning is generated for files that contain non-ASCII
characters without specifying a character encoding:
"Warning: default encoding has changed from Latin-1 to UTF-8"
4. Conversion to Unicode is now done *before* lexing. This makes it possible
to allow arbitrary Unicode characters in identifiers. But identifiers are
still stored as ByteStrings, so they are limited to Latin-1 characters
for now.
5. Lexer.hs is no longer part of the repository. We now generate the lexer
from Lexer.x with alex>=3. Some workarounds for bugs in alex-3.0 were
needed. These bugs might already be fixed in newer versions of alex, but
we should be compatible with what is shipped in the Haskell Platform.
