gutf8: Fix documentation for g_utf8_get_char_validated() length limits
If g_utf8_get_char_validated() encounters a nul byte in the middle of a
string of given longer length, it returns -2, indicating a partial
gunichar. That is not the obvious behaviour, but since
g_utf8_get_char_validated() has been API for a long time, the behaviour
cannot be changed.
Document it, and add some unit tests (for this behaviour and the other
behaviour of g_utf8_get_char_validated()).
