    Sony Ericsson: use ISO-8859-1 for all devices (BMC #14414)

    Sony Ericsson seems to use ISO-8859-1 for all their phones. This
    causes two problems:
    - mangled characters and/or
    - crashes inside libecal/gdbus

    It is uncertain whether all devices have this problem. A poll did not
    yield any results
   
(http://syncevolution.org/blogs/pohly/2011/question-sony-ericsson-users-charset).
So
    let's change it for those who have reported problems.

    To revert the change, copy
    /usr/share/syncevolution/xml/remoterules/server/00_sony_ericsson.xml
    into $HOME/.config/syncevolution-xml/remoterules/server (after
    creating that directory) and remove the lines with ISO-8859-1.

    This was originally reported for contacts, and now also for calendar
    data. The calendar case was seen as a crash of the syncevo-dbus-server:

    GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_new_string: assertion `g_utf8_validate (string,
-1, NULL)' failed

    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
