Subject: remove 'set encoding' menu entry and bug 251264

hi all

I suggest to remove 'set encoding' menu entry. The action can be moved into 
configuration dialog.
This menu action is intended to be used to change the default text encoding if 
the current webpage.Unfortunately, this action only takes effect if the web 
page doesn't have its content-type chatset information, which is rarely 
happened. So the menu entry is totally useless in 99% situations since nearly 
all the sites provide the basic charset metadata.

If the current page has its charset content-type metadata, webkit engine will 
use the charset provided with the page for the text encoding regardless the 
DEFAULT text encoding set by the menu entry.

Another suggestion is to revert the changes for the bug 251264
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=251264
The reason is that the change actually did not fix the problem. Changing the 
default encoding from gb2312 to gb18030 dose not make sense if the web page 
contained charset=gb2312 while actually encoded in gb18030.
The issue of bug 251264 should be an issue in webkit, not rekonq.
