eol-style and utf-16

hi

checking in a file with eol-style native on unix : eol = 0x0a
checking it out on windows : 0x0a is replaced by 0x0d 0x0a

when the file is in utf-16 : eol ist 0x00 0x0a
and when checked out on windows this becomes : 0x00 0x0d 0x0a

which breaks utf-16 as far as i understand it

possible fixes:

* get utf-## aware
* add a charsize property
* document it
* recommend eol-style a nonnative eol-style: LF CR or CRLF

all the best
