Ensure strings are always UTF-8 #34

Ensure that string objects in the vm are always utf-8 encoded.

This is already the case for strings created from literals, but the C API and dynamic constructors should enforce this as well.

[ ] VM: Assert that static strings inside bytecode modules use utf-8 encoding
[ ] C-API: Check string encoding, return error if not utf-8
[ ] String constructor: Check string encoding, return error if not utf-8 (maybe also provide a non-panicking constructor function)
