  /* Iteration step for decoding an UTF-8 byte sequence.
     It decodes incrementally, i. e. it has to be fed
     one byte at a time and then returns either a
     new state or a final result.

     If the resulting attribute set contains the attribute
     result, it is finished and the decoded codepoint is
     contained in that attribute. In all other cases,
     pass the returned set to step again along with
     a new byte. The initial state to pass is the empty
     set.

     Extra attributes are always passed through, so you
     can pass extra state. Be sure not to use result,
     pos, code, first or count.

     This function will throw with a fairly detailed
     message if it encounters ill-formed bytes.
