... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Retried with encoding "UTF-8" instead of "Unicode".  Seems to work
now.

Which sure makes me wonder what "Unicode" was.  -_-

Further experimentation reveals that it only finds *exact* matches
to the *entire* index field, or at least if there's a way to get it
to search more broadly I can't find it.

Fortunately, the oblique keywords and synonym lists seem to cover
everything, but a jbovlaste-gloss-word-only list would also be nice
just in case.

I'm now cleaning up the dsls, because some of them are UTF-16 and
some of them are UTF-8, which is a problem for me and I want to make
this available to other android users.  Also the .dz compression,
for the same reasons.

I can't figure out what the encoding of
eng-jbo_basic-english-wordlist.dsl is at all; do you know?

jbo-jbo_jbovlaste.dsl seems to just be corrupted.

eng-jbo_rupnu.dsl and jbo-eng_rupnu.dsl translate almost everything
to "ru'u".

Feel free to review

case I missed or misunderstood something.
