Overview

Encode the string into the given buffer, in UTF-16. Returns the number of bytes written. There are never more than n bytes written. The minimum size to encode the complete string can be queried with al_ustr_size_utf16(3). If the n parameter is smaller than that, the string will be truncated but still always 0 terminated.
