Export latest available UTF-8 version number so filesystems can easily
load the newest one.

If this is the accepted way of doing that, I will also add something to
checkpatch to warn that modifications at fs/unicode/utf8data.c likely
need to change this define.
Other ways to implement this:
1) Having a new arg for utf8_load()
struct unicode_map *utf8_load(unsigned int version, bool latest)
{
um->tables = symbol_request(utf8_data_table);
if (latest) {
int i = um->tables->utf8agetab_size - 1;
version = um->tables->utf8agetab[i]
}
}
2) Expose utf8agetab[]
Having utf8agetab[] at include/linux/unicode.h will make easier to
programmatically find out the latest version without the need to do a
symbol_request/symbol_put of the whole utf8 table.
