* generic/tclStringObj.c: Removed limitation in

        Tcl_AppendObjToObj where the char length of the result was only
        computed if the appended string was all single byte characters.
        This limitation was in place to dodge a bug in Tcl_GetUniChar.
        With that bug gone, we can take advantage of always recording the
        length of append results when we know it.
