`unescape_literal` becomes `unescape_unicode`, and `unescape_c_string`
becomes `unescape_mixed`. Because rfc3349 will mean that C string
literals will no longer be the only mixed utf8 literals.
- Rename it as `MixedUnit`, because it will soon be used in more than
just C string literals.
- Change the `Byte` variant to `HighByte` and use it only for
`\x80`..`\xff` cases. This fixes the old inexactness where ASCII chars
could be encoded with either `Byte` or `Char`.
- Add useful comments.
- Remove `is_ascii`, in favour of `u8::is_ascii`.
Detect `NulInCStr` error earlier.
By making it an `EscapeError` instead of a `LitError`. This makes it like the other errors produced when checking string literals contents, e.g. for invalid escape sequences or bare CR chars.
NOTE: this means these errors are issued earlier, before expansion, which changes behaviour. It will be possible to move the check back to the later point if desired. If that happens, it's likely that all the string literal contents checks will be delayed together.
One nice thing about this: the old approach had some code in `report_lit_error` to calculate the span of the nul char from a range. This code used a hardwired `+2` to account for the `c"` at the start of a C string literal, but this should have changed to a `+3` for raw C string literals to account for the `cr"`, which meant that the caret in `cr"` nul error messages was one short of where it should have been. The new approach doesn't need any of this and avoids the off-by-one error.
