Description

Currently the html pages generated by webrev(1) does not contain any information about encoding. In case the bug synopsis and/or reviewer's name contains non-ASCII characters the browser will use some default encoding. This might lead to incorrect rendering of some characters.

For example my browser showed this by default (ISO-8859-2 was selected automatically):

3501 mdb: ::thread -d needs the SWITCH column
Reviewed by: David HĂśppner <0xffea@gmail.com>

While the correct (with UTF-8 encoding) should be:

3501 mdb: ::thread -d needs the SWITCH column
Reviewed by: David Höppner <0xffea@gmail.com>
