Detailed Description

When code needs to work with utf8 char info, it keeps byte_len, display_width here instead of scattering it across globals. Initialization establishes the handles and sizes; teardown must release any allocation, lock, thread, or callback context recorded in those fields.

Decoded palette text plus lookup data for rendering Unicode glyphs safely.

The palette keeps character boundaries separate from byte offsets, so a renderer can choose by character index without splitting a multibyte code point. Its cached UTF-8 entries also carry byte length and terminal cell width for output sizing.

Note: char_count is the number of characters (not bytes), which is important for proper palette indexing.; total_bytes is the total byte length of the raw string, useful for memory management.
