*
* The protocol compiler does not actually contain a UTF-8 decoder -- it
* just pushes UTF-8-encoded text around without touching it. The one place
* where this presents a problem is when generating Java string literals.
* Unicode characters in the string literal would normally need to be encoded
* using a Unicode escape sequence, which would require decoding them.
* To get around this, protoc instead embeds the UTF-8 bytes into the
* generated code and leaves it to the runtime library to decode them.
*
* It gets worse, though. If protoc just generated a byte array, like:
* new byte[] {0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78}
* Java actually generates *code* which allocates an array and then fills
* in each value. This is much less efficient than just embedding the bytes
* directly into the bytecode. To get around this, we need another
* work-around. String literals are embedded directly, so protoc actually
* generates a string literal corresponding to the bytes. The easiest way
* to do this is to use the ISO-8859-1 character set, which corresponds to
* the first 256 characters of the Unicode range. Protoc can then use
* good old CEscape to generate the string.
*
* So we have a string literal which represents a set of bytes which
* represents another string. This function -- stringDefaultValue --
* converts from the generated string to the string we actually want. The
* generated code calls this automatically.
