string_util: Replace deprecated wstring_convert with direct UTF conversions

Removes usage of std::wstring_convert and std::codecvt_utf8_utf16 which are
deprecated since C++17. Implements direct UTF conversions for:

- UTF16ToUTF8: Manual conversion with proper surrogate pair handling
- UTF8ToUTF16: Direct conversion supporting full Unicode range
- UTF8ToUTF32: New implementation with proper code point extraction

The new implementations are more robust and handle edge cases better while
avoiding deprecated functionality. Windows-specific code paths remain unchanged
using the existing UTF16W conversions.

This change improves maintainability and removes compiler warnings about
deprecated features while maintaining full Unicode support.
