Read and parse mdb file indices

Description

When using Microsoft Jet 4 Databases, index fields are created using the DBLCMapStringW function (check MSDN library for documentation of this function). Jet 4 driver itself loads this function from mswstr.dll on Microsoft Windows. The library contains static translation tables (as opposed to LCMapStringW API) in order to have consistent translations across all Windows Versions.

Libraries that try to read and parse mdb file indices like databases/mdbtools should work on every platform and therefore a platform independent version of this library is needed. This is an attempt to port the library to Posix-systems.
