Comment (by cboos):
`default_charset` is used when there's no other clue to
determine what charset is used by some external content
(like an attachment file, a source file in the repository,
etc.) so I think using it for the TracIni file itself is
a good fit.
Note: using `iso-8859-15` or similar here rather than `utf-8`
has the nice property of making a file always decipherable,
as this is a fixed byte encoding.
If you'd use `utf-8` for that config option, you'll likely go into
trouble whenever you'll manipulate anything but `ascii` or `utf-8`.
