ikiwiki 1.6 released with these changes:
* YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
* -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
Closes: #[373203](http://bugs.debian.org/373203)
* Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
* writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
* Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
there.
* Revert some of the decode\_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
given the readfile fix.
* Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
* Put back the encode\_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
safe.
* More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
- The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
- Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
for the content.
- Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
character in print.
* New SVG logo from Recai.
