TODO: figure out how this flag can be passed elegantly from `zbarImage` to `zbarSymbolIter` and then `zbarSymbol`. Probably with adding a `use_utf8` parameter to `zbarSymbolIter_FromSymbolSet` and then extending every class...

Use cython fused types (templated functions) to remove redundancy from smp.pyx and smx.pyx
