[cairo] char* vs. unsigned char*

Your plan seems sensible to me -- signed char for text data, unsigned char
for binary data. That fontconfig uses unsigned char for UTF-8 data is
probably a mistake. It does help find places where the strings are passed
into locale-sensitive libc string functions, but the annoyance of the many
needed casts is huge.
