sms: fix spliting messages into chunks in gsm7 encoding

Andrey Skvortsov requested to merge skv/ModemManager:fix-gsm7-encoding-split into main
  1. Not every allowed GSM7 character in UTF-8 incoding takes one byte. Some (for example, 'à') take several bytes in input string, but signle byte in GSM7.
  2. Extended characters in GSM7 encoding take two bytes.

Otherwise for example sending following SMS fails:

 mmcli -m a --messaging-create-sms="text='[wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww',number='+XXXXXXXXXXX'"
Successfully created new SMS: /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/99
 mmcli --send -s 99
error: couldn't send the SMS: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.libqmi.Error.Protocol.WmsEncoding: Couldn't write SMS part: QMI protocol error (58): 'WmsEncoding''
mmcli -m a --messaging-create-sms="text='|àààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààà',number='+XXXXXXXXXXX'"
