Expose encoding-guessing functions #8

Closed Fuuzetsu closed 2 years ago

Fuuzetsu commented 9 years ago

http://userguide.icu-project.org/conversion/detection seems to say that ICU is able to make some guesses regarding encoding used but text-icu seems to not expose any such functionality which IMHO greatly impairs its usefulness.

FTR for now we're using charsetdetect-ae package along with comparing to aliases for this.

Pull request welcome, I won't have time to implement this myself.

27 implements this, and needs just a little reformatting.
