   * Converts the data from one Charset to Unicode.
   *
   * About the byte ordering:
   * - For input, if the converter cares (that depends of the charset, for 
   * example a singlebyte will ignore the byte ordering) it should assume 
   * network order. If necessary and requested, we can add a method 
   * SetInputByteOrder() so that the reverse order can be used, too. That 
   * method would have as default the assumed network order.
   * - The output stream is Unicode, having the byte order which is internal
   * for the machine on which the converter is running on.
   *
   * Unless there is not enough output space, this method must consume all the
   * available input data! The eventual incomplete final character data will be
   * stored internally in the converter and used when the method is called 
   * again for continuing the conversion. This way, the caller will not have to
   * worry about managing incomplete input data by mergeing it with the next 
   * buffer.
   *
   * Error conditions: 
   * If the read value does not belong to this character set, one should 
   * replace it with the Unicode special 0xFFFD. When an actual input error is 
   * encountered, like a format error, the converter stop and return error.
   * Hoever, we should keep in mind that we need to be lax in decoding.
   *
   * Converter required behavior:
   * In this order: when output space is full - return right away. When input
   * data is wrong, return input pointer right after the wrong byte. When 
   * partial input, it will be consumed and cached. All the time input pointer
   * will show how much was actually consumed and how much was actually 
   * written.
   *
