wxmbconvutf16

this class is used to convert between multibyte encodings and utf-16 unicode encoding (also known as ucs-2). unlike utf-8 encoding, utf-16 uses words and not bytes and hence depends on the byte ordering: big or little endian. hence this class is provided in two versions: wxmbconvutf16le and wxmbconvutf16be and wxmbconvutf16 itself is just a typedef for one of them (native for the given platform, e.g. le under windows and be under mac).
