Deprecate non HX_SMART_STRINGS paths #1353

Description

@Aidan63

Having to keep two code paths for text encoding stuff has been annoying me recently, I have two questions.

  1. What is the NO_HX_SMART_STRINGS really for? I'm assuming this was just to switch back to the old code in case there were bugs in the new dual encoding system.
  2. Is anyone actually using the non smart strings mode, if so, why? I'm assuming if anyone is they ran into a bug, disabled unicode string, and haven't touched it since.

It would be nice if for Haxe 5 we could stop supporting the fallback mode, any new api wouldn't need to support both that way.
