Description

Document character encoding policies and how to fix mangled UTF8 files

Summary:
See D431, where I promised to document this like 2 months ago. Document that:

  • Everything should be UTF-8.
  • ASCII is recommended.
  • How to identify and repair files which aren't valid UTF-8.
  • What to do if you're using some other encoding.

Test Plan: Generated and read documentation.
