I'm not sure if this is ok as-is. I'm fine with cutting off the text after the
first invalid character for text that is definitely UTF-8, i.e. where we had a
BOM, but if I'm reading the current patch correctly it would basically just cut
off non-UTF8 encodings at the first non-ASCII character and treat it as UTF-8
instead of falling through to the fallbacks (current locale, environment
variables, etc.).
