Add recent changes to README.

Add a note to the manual to explain why --fullmultibyte may be an issue.
I am not completely satisfied of the position of this note, as it is symbology specific comaction, but it interferes at least with ECI described below.

(New) Tests for auspost, codablock, composite, dotcode, general, telepen, upcean,
all output formats,
- QR, Han Xin, Grid Matrix: the multi byte compaction schemes (ex: Kanji)
are used by some decoders as codepage information (Ex: GB2312) and output
may be translated to UTF-8. This may destroy the data in a not controlable
manner.
In consequence, multibyte compaction schemes are disabled by default.
The new option --fullmultibyte (option_3 = ZINT_FULL_MULTIBYTE) enables this
optimisation.
