2014-03-23Implement \u notation for strings and regexes.chasonr
This change adds the \u notation for double quoted strings and regular expressions. It does not implement the \u notation for character literals. Both the \uNNNN and \u{NNNN} notations are supported. \uNNNN is implemented by emitting equivalent UTF-8; that is, "\u4000" is equivalent to "\xE4\x80\x80". Unlike CRuby, the \u{NNNN} notation allows only one character per pair of braces; I see no way to lift this restriction without remodeling the parser.
