isvalid(::AbstractString,i)

isvalid(str, i)

Tells whether index i is valid for the given string

Examples

Check if a character is valid:
```
julia> isvalid('a')
true
```
Check if a string is valid ASCII:
```
julia> isvalid("hello")
true
```
Check if a string is valid UTF-8:
```
julia> isvalid("こんにちは")
true
```
Check if a string is valid UTF-16:
```
julia> isvalid("🌍")
true
```
Check if a string is valid UTF-32:
```
julia> isvalid("🚀")
true
```

Common mistake example:

julia> isvalid("你好")
true

The isvalid function only checks the validity of the given value for specific types (Char, ASCIIString, UTF8String, UTF16String, or UTF32String). It does not perform a comprehensive validity check for all possible strings. In this example, "你好" is a valid UTF-8 string, but the function returns true because it only checks for specific types.
