Details

Develop versions of UTF-16 to UTF-8 and Latin1 to UTF-8 conversions that can write into shared memory in the presence of an adversarial second thread of execution without the result being a security bug and use that in encodeInto without a memcpySafeWhenRacy in the case the buffer is a SharedArrayBuffer.
