Support additional encodings

Apparently, I used an outdated version of the spec. I updated support for
additional encodings based on V1.11.1 of this spec.

The whole encoding/decoding was written by myself a couple of years back. The
is_multibyte part is only responsible to remove control codes from the text. I
did not have any samples with multi-byte encoding back then, therefore it might
be wrong all along. In addition, the spec doesn't mention anything about the
byte order. All I know is that it works with the sample file.

Regarding "Big5 subset of ISO/IEC 10646". I tried to find out what exactly this
means, but could not find any information that links Big5 and ISO/IEC 10646.

I suggest to accept this patch since the spec is very vague about the details
and it works correctly with the sample file. If someone else comes along later
with a sample that does not work, we can look into it again.
