Implements decoding string literals as Shift JIS in addition to ASCII. This works with both pooled and unpooled (#188) strings.
Note that I specify "copying" Shift JIS strings and not "displaying" them, because as far as know, egui does not support fallback fonts. So if the current font doesn't support Japanese characters (which objdiff's default font doesn't), then egui will simply display them as boxes rather than fallback to a system font that displays them properly:
The characters can be displayed if the user manually switches their Code font in the settings to one that has Japanese characters, but note that this changes the font for all the code, not just these strings, so it may or may not be desirable:
Either way, being able to just copy the strings from objdiff is more important than being able to read them.
