Ok.

We can use iconv for certain encodings, but not for all.
And, the code for handling variants of UCS/UTF is fairly
short as you see in iconv. In addition, we anyway need data
in etc/charsets for
decode-char/encode-char/map-charset-chars functions.
So, I think it's simpler to have encoder/decoder in Emacs
itself.
