The keyword reprents an untyped nil and is useful for
passing nil values to methods and functions. The
nil will be promoted to the appropriate type when
used; if a type cannot be assigned, an error results.

Surrogate halves are part of UTF-16 and should never appear in UTF-8.
(The rune that two combined halves represent in UTF-16 should
be encoded directly.)

Encoding: encode as RuneError.
Decoding: convert to RuneError, consume one byte.

This requires changing:
        package unicode/utf8
        runtime for range over string
Also added utf8.ValidRune and fixed bug in utf.RuneLen.

Fixes #3927.

Section B.2.3 of http://www.w3.org/Graphics/JPEG/itu-t81.pdf discusses

Apparently many JPEG decoders ignore the Se byte (or let it through
with a warning), but some configurations reject them. For example,
http://download.blender.org/source/chest/blender_2.03_tree/jpeg/jcmaster.c
has these lines:

Since NUL usually terminates strings in underlying syscalls, allowing
it when converting string arguments is a security risk, especially
when dealing with filenames. For example, a program might reason that
filename like "/root/..\x00/" is a subdirectory or "/root/" and allow
access to it, while underlying syscall will treat "\x00" as an end of
that string and the actual filename will be "/root/..", which might
be unexpected. Returning EINVAL when string arguments have NUL in
them makes sure this attack vector is unusable.
