04f1904a7d Remove "unicode" mode and simply permit unicode to be used everywhere within
cx_Oracle; stop using "unicode" mode in the OCI as well since that appears to
have bugs in some places and doesn't really solve any problems anyway.

c6603b324d Add new attributes size, bufferSize and numElements to variable objects,
deprecating allocelems (replaced by numElements) and maxlength (replaced by
bufferSize); avoid increasing memory allocation for strings when using variable
width character sets and increasing the number of elements in a variable during
executemany(). Thanks to Don Reid for pointing out this issue.

2e26d0beb8 Continued work on Unicode support; added new test cases for full unicode
support within Python 2.x; move away from character semantics which Oracle is
deprecating anyway to byte semantics which should hopefully eliminate the
problem with a backend character set of UTF-8.
