Negative values for 'i' in mw.ustring.byteoffset are supposed to count
from the end of the string. But in LuaSandbox, it was actually counting
from two bytes before the end of the string due to a typo.
Fix that, and add some tests for it.

The following errors are fixed:
* PHP warning and wrong return value with empty pattern and plain
* Incorrect offsets returned when init is larger than the string length
* Incorrect captured offsets returned when init is excessively negative

* mw.ustring.sub( '', 1 ) errors in LuaStandalone
* Default value for ustring.maxStringLength and ustring.maxPatternLength
should be infinity, not nil
* mw.ustring.find() returns one value instead of two in "plain" mode.

The Lua manual says this:
For this function, a '^' at the start of a pattern does not work as an
anchor, as this would prevent the iteration.
I had interpreted that to mean that a pattern starting with '^' would
never match in gmatch. But further testing reveals that the '^' is just
treated as a literal character: string.gmatch( "foo ^bar baz", "^%a+" )
will match "^bar".

This is a reimplementation of Lua's string library with support for
UTF-8.
The entire ustring library is implemented in pure Lua. PHP callbacks are
also available for overrides: in LuaSandbox these are used for almost
all functions, while in LuaStandalone they are used only for the pattern
matching. Also, ustring.upper and ustring.lower are overridden using
mw.language's .uc and .lc if available.
It also includes a bunch of unit tests.
Note that if you download the normalization tests, they may fail under
LuaSandbox if you have PHP's intl extension installed and libicu on your
system is too old.
