Only UTF-8 strings with a max of 4 bytes per character are supported. **BOM** is kept untouched. Invalid characters are replaced with *Unicode Character 'REPLACEMENT CHARACTER' (U+FFFD)*.
## API
```javascript
/**
* Read a string of UTF-8 characters from a byte buffer.
* Invalid characters are replaced with 'REPLACEMENT CHARACTER' (U+FFFD).
* @see https://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/#the-encoding
* @see https://stackoverflow.com/a/34926911
* @param {!Uint8Array|!Array<number>} buffer A byte buffer.
* @param {number=} start The buffer index to start reading.
* @param {?number=} end The buffer index to stop reading.
* Assumes the buffer length if undefined.
* @return {string}
*/
export function unpack(buffer, start=0, end=buffer.length) {}
/**
* Write a string of UTF-8 characters to a byte buffer.
* @see https://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/#utf-8-encoder
* @param {string} str The string to pack.
* @param {!Uint8Array|!Array<number>} buffer The buffer to pack the string to.
* @param {number=} index The buffer index to start writing.
