[jjohnstn: initial version of iconv support checked in]

[Christopher Faylor]

The below is just an FYI.

This means that the iconv stuff could be built into the DLL, bloating the dll
even more I suppose.

Is this something that we want to do?  I vote no, but I thought I should mention
this to the collective wisdom of cygwin-apps since it essentially boils down to
a package issue.

This is just to note that the initial version of Artem Bityuckiy's iconv 
code has been checked in.  It can be activated using the configuration 
option:

 --enable-newlib-iconv

Builtin iconv converters can be selected using the configuration option:

 --enable-newlib-builtin-converters

This iconv code cannot currently be used with i686-pc-linux-gnu which 
has its own iconv support.

Thanks to Artem for this major piece of work.
