Unicode string handling

After doing some work with the new unicode string, I'm throwing in my $0.02:

1. We need to propely handle unicode 'terminator'.
2. By default, the 'encoding', 'read_encoding', and 'write_encoding' should be None, which then does no encoding/decoding (old behaviour).  The reasons for this might be: (a) coders may want to do their own weird encode/decode, (b) some phones use STRING fields as data fields.
3. Need to decide on how to handle value keys like 'sizeinbytes', 'constant', truncation processing, etc. for both string and unicode.
