patch for unicode PDFs on clisp

There are three patches attached.

clisp-unicode.patch begins support for producing unicode PDFs on clisp.  It
is pretty uninteresting, other than making me wonder if cl-pdf should just
define an ascii-char-p function (or whatever an appropriate name for it
would be), instead of duplicating reader conditionals so many times.

clisp-encoding.patch limits the effects of setting *default-file-encoding*
to within cl-pdf itself, to avoid causing surprises for users with
alternately-encoded source files.  Or, copying from the patchfile itself:
;; Justification: *default-file-encoding* affects not only cl-pdf, but every
;; lisp file loaded or compiled after this, which causes encoding issues for
;; any bit of user code assuming the environment is set up for, e.g., utf-8.
;; cl-pdf should avoid changing defaults out from under its users if
possible.

clisp-encoding-2.patch does the same as clisp-encoding.patch, but for
cl-typesetting, with the justification that setting it in both cl-pdf and
cl-typesetting is redundant.

Enjoy!  Or...don't?

Who is much happier having figured out his encoding issues.

Thanks :) I will have a look but please resend the patches directly to
me as I can't read them in your original email.
