Given that LilyPond uses Unicode exclusively I wonder whether we
should rename

   ly:wide-char->utf-8

to

   ly:unicode->utf-8

or something similar.  'Wide character' is too broad a term IMHO, and
the function doesn't do any character set conversions.

We are more or less close to transitioning to Guile 2 exclusively which is going to obviate it anyway.
