make fish buildable on OS X Snow Leopard
I noticed that the `test_convert()` function was randomly failing when
run on OS X Snow Leopard. I tracked it down to the `mbrtowc()` function on
that OS being broken. Explicitly testing for UTF-8 prefixes that identify
a sequence longer than four bytes (which the Unicode standard made illegal
long ago) keeps us from having encoding errors on those OS's.
This also makes the errors reported by the `test_convert()` function actually
useful and readable.
Lastly, it makes it possible to build fish on OS X Snow Leopard.
