This is simpler and saves a malloc each time. Note that this code could use plain utf8_to_bytes() on older perls, but it is less convenient, so would require more code; I don't think the performance gain is worth it.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I was a bit worried about this, since this modifies the PV belonging to a SV, but the SV is a copy of the key from the hash on this branch, so it's safe.
It does make a UTF-8 SV with a validly encoded PV into a UTF-8 SV with a probably invalidly encoded PV, but that SV is almost immediately discarded.
Will the new utf8_to_bytes_* functions be added to ppport.h?
