utf8-io defines several utilities for performing UTF-8 I/O.

• ReadStr and WriteStr are traits which extend Read and Write providing read_str and write_str functions for reading and writing UTF-8 data.

• Utf8Reader and Utf8Writer implement ReadStr and WriteStr and wrap arbitrary Read and Write implementations. Utf8Reader translates invalid UTF-8 encodings into replacements (U+FFFD), while Utf8Writer reports errors on invalid UTF-8 encodings. Both ensure that scalar values are never split at the end of a buffer.

• Utf8Duplexer represents an interactive stream and implements both ReadStr and WriteStr.

Utf8Reader is similar utf8-read, but differs in that it silently turns invalid byte sequences into replacement characters rather than reporting an error.
