Function SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING
SYNOPSIS

        Encoding:
        SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING(str, str_len)
        SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING_T(opts, tag, str, str_len)

        Decoding:
        SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING(&str, &str_len)
        SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING_T(opts, tag, &str, &str_len)

DESCRIPTION

        Macro used to encode or decode general string.  The string type is
        unsigned char and string length SilcUInt32.

        The `opts' is SilcAsn1Options.  The `tag' is a tag number.

NOTES

        The string must be in UTF-8 encoding when encoding.  The decoded
        string will be in UTF-8 encoding.  The actual data is encoded to
        or decoded from general.  NOTE: this implementation use 8-bit ASCII.
