UTF-8 support in the TOC side panel of a PDF viewer

[Volodymyr Prokopyuk]

Hi LilyPond developers,

Thank you very much for the outstanding work you are doing! Lilypond is the
best of breed program for music engraving!

*Context*

I'm engraving Ukrainian folk songs for bayan (button accordion) using
Ukrainian language for score titles and entries for the table of contents
(TOC).

*Feature*

Support UTF-8 in general and Ukrainian in particular in a PDF viewer TOC
side panel. Currently Okular and Firefox PDF viewers show interrogation
signs (?) for Ukrainian characters

*Minimal example*

\version "2.23.10"
\markuplist \table-of-contents
\tocItem \markup "Українська мова"
\score { \relative { c' } }
\tocItem \markup "Lilypond найкраща програма"
\score { \relative { c' } }

Minimal example output toc.pdf as well as the toc.ly source are attached.

Thank you very much,
Vlad
