so that make inside an source ./Env.Host.sh environment

The ones which use a definite 8-bit encoding read/write pascal-style
strings with a 16bit length prefix.

The ones which use a definite 16-bit encoding read/write pascal-style
UTF-16 strings with a 32bit length prefix, i.e. not ByteStrings at all

The "I dunno" ones might be UTF-16 strings or 8-bit strings, depending
on the charset. Rename to ReadUniOrByteString like the other
similar horrors to flag this misery

Nobody ever used the return values anyway, so for reading just
return the string and for writing the number of bytes written

Doesn't need to be members, make standalone functions

Rename  to
read_lenPrefixed_uInt8s_ToO[U]String and
write_lenPrefixed_uInt8s_FromO[U]String, lengthy,
but much less unambiguous, seeing as a lot of users of it don't
seem to be aware that they read/write pascal-style length
prefixed strings, which isn't surprising given the
apparent simplicity of their original name.

added a unit test

WriteLine just writes a line of text, WriteByteString writes
a 16bit length of following content. It can't make sense to
suddenly stick a pascal-style string in at the end of a file
that's otherwise plain text.

original git id that introduced the use of WriteByteString here
was ea76474a back in 2002

Perhaps this worked because partial strings never ended up
as trailing content, so only ever had an empty string as
the final partial string, so a 0x0000 got appended, as
opposed to a newline, so it appeared to do the right thing.

and as a side effect we can simplify, because argument is never NULL
and return is never used

also use icon names *3.5* instead of *35*; this version is used on another
locations as well; it allows to reuse the UNIXBASISROOTNAME variable that
is substituted by the installer
