Magma and unicode

[Chris Muller]

Hi Henrik, yes, MaSearchStringIndex trades a smaller range of
indexable characters (ascii range 33-96) in exchange for
user-convenience (e.g., case-insensitive searches) and more
"meaningfulCharacters".

For Unicode, you should make a new subclass of MagmaCollectionIndex,
based on MaByteSequenceIndex.

Regards,
  Chris
