Incompatible API change in 2.0 series for string port encoding |

In 2.0.9, the following patch/code for getting what amounts to a binary
string port worked.

In 2.0.11, it doesn't. This is an incompatible API change within the
"stable" 2.0 series. Since we are ping-ponging between GUILE and a
native LilyPond interpreter and need to work with file offsets for
keeping them in synch, it isn't an option to have scm_open_input_string
convert to a different encoding.
It also does not make sense from an efficiency point of view since
strings are either encoded as latin-1 or UTF-32, so encoding string
ports as UTF-8 without alternative means that it is _impossible_ to
employ string ports efficiently and without conversion.
