This allows UnicodeScalars to be constructed from an integer, rather
then from a string. Not only this avoids an unnecessary memory
allocation (!) when creating a UnicodeScalar, this also allows the
compiler to statically check that the string contains a single scalar
value (in the same way the compiler checks that Character contains only
a single extended grapheme cluster).

This is only for the frontend, not for stdlib. The implementation is very
slow, optimizing it is the next step.

double-quoted string literals that contain a single extended grapheme cluster
SEGCL by default infer type String, but you can ask to infer Character
for them.
Single quoted literals continue to infer Character.
Actual extended grapheme cluster segmentation is not implemented yet,
