            Reporter: Gary D. Gregory
             Fix For: 2.3


Add Charset sister APIs to method that take a String charset name (aka 
encoding). 
For example: foo(..., String charsetName) -> foo(..., Charset charset).
Refactor such that we do not have code duplication of the algorithms.

Known issue: Source compatibility.

Now there are APIs that change only by the last type, String vs. Charset, you 
will get a compile error if you pass null to the API because the target method 
will be ambiguous, so you have to type cast to one type or the other.
