Nicholas Nethercote a1c07214f0 Rework CStrUnit.
- Rename it as `MixedUnit`, because it will soon be used in more than
  just C string literals.
- Change the `Byte` variant to `HighByte` and use it only for
  `\x80`..`\xff` cases. This fixes the old inexactness where ASCII chars
  could be encoded with either `Byte` or `Char`.
- Add useful comments.
- Remove `is_ascii`, in favour of `u8::is_ascii`.

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).

For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
