[TODO] support 'U' format in Array#pack()

Reported by kwatch | February 24th, 2008 @ 01:51 AM | in 1.0 preview

Array#pack() doesn't support 'U' (unicode) format currently.

hoge.rb:

str = [0x65e5, 0x672c, 0x8a9e].pack('U*')
p str
puts str

result:

$ ruby hoge.rb
"\346\227\245\346\234\254\350\252\236"
日本語
$ shotgun/rubinius hoge.rb
An exception has occurred:
    Unknown kind U (ArgumentError)
