Update PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8 from RFC 2279 to RFC 3629.
1) #8271: when a byte sequence is invalid, only the start byte and all the
valid continuation bytes are now replaced by U+FFFD, instead of replacing
the number of bytes specified by the start byte.
See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.2.0/ch03.pdf (pages 94-95);
2) 5- and 6-bytes-long UTF-8 sequences are now considered invalid (no changes
in behavior);
3) Add code and tests to reject surrogates (U+D800-U+DFFF) as defined in
RFC 3629, but leave it commented out since it's not backward compatible;
4) Change the error messages "unexpected code byte" to "invalid start byte"
and "invalid data" to "invalid continuation byte";
5) Add an extensive set of tests in test_unicode;
6) Fix test_codeccallbacks because it was failing after this change.
