Adds wide-string constants to the language, e.g.
char[?] my_string = L"Each character is 16 bytes wide! Escapes\t are understood!";
This is an analog to an existing (albeit obscure) C feature, which I referenced in my open issue: #1947
I did my best here to conform to code styling/requirements, but please feel free to clean things up or stress-test them.
@lerno I know you said you were going to make a builtin, but I wanted to try my hand at modifying the compiler and writing a test. Go easy on me. If you don't want this feature in the language, I understand, but this was great to get my hands into the compiler anyway!
