compatible with webkit and will allow for easy externalization of
strings. One byte strings are retained for pure ASCII strings.
(The language specification was changed recently to reflect this as
follows "A string is a sequence of UTF-16 code units").
- Remove four byte string class and all references to it.
- Rename some of the string functions in Dart API to make them
consistent and better describe the underlying functionality

This profiler will write binary HPROF data to a user provided stream that
can later be viewed by tools such as the Eclipse Memory Analyzer.
While all user defined types are accurately described in the profile data,
internal types that are not self-describing appear as empty objects. This
will be addressed by a future change.

In the past, characters in C strings were assumed to encode themselves
and when converting Dart strings to C strings characters were narrowed
to 8-bit values.
With this change, C strings are assumed to be UTF-8 encoded.
Converting a C string to a Dart string applies UTF-8 decoding and
converting a Dart string to a C string applies UTF-8 encoding.
Also part of this change are new methods to construct uninitialized
string objects and to copy string data.
