Add support for RFC 2389 (FEAT) and RFC 2640 (UTF8) to ftpd(8).
The support for RFC 2640 (UTF8) is optional and rudimentary. The server just advertises its capability to handle UTF-8 file names and relies on its own 8-bit cleanness, as well as on the backward compatibility of UTF-8 with ASCII. So uploaded files will have UTF-8 names, but the initial server contents should be prepared in UTF-8 by hand, no on-the-fly conversion of file names will be done.
