[PATCH v3 1/2] precompose_utf8: Make precompose_string_if_needed() public

[tboegi@xxxxxx]

From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx>

commit 5c327502,  MacOS: precompose_argv_prefix()
uses the function precompose_string_if_needed() internally.
It is only used from precompose_argv_prefix() and therefore
static in compat/precompose_utf8.c

Expose this function, it will be used in the next commit.

While there, allow passing a NULL pointer, which will return NULL.
