CORBA21 — Wchar and Char can both be multibyte

Summary: With regard to the character encoding issue.

This is not just a problem with Wchar, and Wstring, it can happen
with char and string as well. Multibyte encodings are used for
normal strings in the enhanced IDL as well as for
Wchars.
I think the problem is in the definition of char. For interop, the char type could be either:
1) restricted to a syntactic thing which can only be used with single byte encodings, or
2) we need to bite the bullet and make the encoding for char a sequence
of bytes if a multibyte encoding is chosen.
