Add a placeholder implementation of wcscoll() and wcsxfrm() which gives
locale-sensitive collation only in single-byte locales, and just does binary comparison for the others with extended character sets.

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm wcscoll
+.Nd compare wide strings according to current collation
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In wchar.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn wcscoll "const wchar_t *s1" "const wchar_t *s2"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn wcscoll
+function compares the null-terminated strings
+.Fa s1
+and
+.Fa s2
+according to the current locale collation order.
+In the
+.Dq Li C
+locale,
+.Fn wcscoll
+is equivalent to
+.Fn wcscmp .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn wcscoll
+function
+returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0,
+if
+.Fa s1
+is greater than, equal to, or less than
+.Fa s2 .
+.Pp
+No return value is reserved to indicate errors;
+callers should set
+.Va errno
+to 0 before calling
+.Fn wcscoll .
+If it is non-zero upon return from
+.Fn wcscoll ,
+an error has occurred.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn wcscoll
+function will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EILSEQ
+An invalid wide character code was specified.
+.It Bq Er ENOMEM
+Cannot allocate enough memory for temporary buffers.
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr setlocale 3 ,
+.Xr strcoll 3 ,
+.Xr wcscmp 3 ,
+.Xr wcsxfrm 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn wcscoll
+function
+conforms to
+.St -isoC-99 .
+.Sh BUGS
+The current implementation of
+.Fn wcscoll
+only works in single-byte
+.Dv LC_CTYPE
+locales, and falls back to using
+.Fn wcscmp
+in locales with extended character sets.
