Improve multibyte character handling in branch ext
This fixes a bug that causes a mangled statusline. The bug occurs, when
the `displayed_head_limit` variable is set and causes the substring
expression to take a substring, which ends in the middle of a multi-byte
character.

This patch replaces the byte-based methods for measuring the
length of the branch name and creating a substring with methods that are
character-based and multi-byte aware.

It also has the nice side effect of making the length measuring more
accurate, by taking the actual display width of multi-byte characters
and the ambiwidth setting into account.

Since we need to take into account older Vim 7.4 (which might not have
the strcharpart() function), do introduce a compatibility wrapper in
airline#util that checks for the existence of the function before using
it. Older Vims will keep on using the byte-based index. I suppose Vim
7.4 before the strcharpart() function was available (patch 7.4.1730)
shouldn't be in use anymore.
