Use UTF-8 byte length instead of character count or display width for message
truncation. This fixes an issue where emoji characters like 😀 (4 UTF-8 bytes,
1 character, 2 display units) caused messages to exceed the RF packet size.
Changes:
- Replace _count_display_width with byte-based length calculation
- Add _count_byte_length and _truncate_to_byte_length helper methods
- Update get_max_message_length to use 127 bytes (channel limit) not 150
- Add type hints to new methods
- Added a new configuration option `use_bot_location_when_no_location` to allow the use of bot's configured coordinates if no companion location is available.
- Updated `wx_command.py` and `wx_international.py` to utilize the new configuration, enhancing the user experience by providing a fallback mechanism for location-based commands.
- Improved logging to reflect the usage of bot coordinates and handle cases where bot location is not set.
- Introduced support for multiday forecasts up to 16 days, allowing users to specify days in various formats (e.g., Nd, 7day).
- Updated usage documentation and parameter descriptions to reflect new options for both US and international weather commands.
- Adjusted internal logic to validate and parse new forecast formats, ensuring compatibility with the extended range.

- Updated the `send_response` method calls in various command classes to include a `skip_user_rate_limit` parameter for message continuations, ensuring that the per-user rate limit applies only to the first message.
- This change improves user experience by allowing seamless message continuations without unnecessary rate limiting.
- Replaced the `abbreviate_noaa` method calls with a new `_noaa_period_display_name` method to improve the display of forecast period names, including handling federal holidays.
