Summary: Display nicely non ISO-8859-1 trees

Initial Comment:
LXR v0.9.8

LXR sends an HTTP header advertising for ISO-8859-1 content which is not always the case with Unicode becoming ubiquitous.

This can be circumvented by creating a new tree-specific parameter for the charset to use with the tree. Its syntax is:

'encoding' => 'iso-8859-1'  # default value in order not to disrupt LXR operation

Instead of 'iso-8859-1', you can use any IANA defined charset.

This involves patches in several files:
1- Common.pm
   In sub printhttp, send correct header:

-448,448 110227  (replace line 448 with:)
        print("Content-Type: text/html; charset=", $config->{'encoding'}, "\n");
---------------------- end of patch --------------------

   In sub makeheader, add a variable substitution in case an HTML template wants to use 'encoding' for example in a <meta > tag:


-852 110227  (insert after line 852:)
                'encoding'   => sub { return $config->{'encoding'}; },
--------------------- end of patch ------------------------

2- Config.pm

   In sub initialize
  Make sure parameter 'encoding' has a reasonable default value

-109 110227   (insert after line 109)

    $$self{'encoding'} = "iso-8859-1" unless (exists $self->{'encoding'});
---------------------------- end of patch -----------------

3- html-head.html

   With the introduction of the 'encoding' config parameter to advertise the character set used in the content, add the following line after <title>:

-4   (insert after line 4)
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=$encoding">
---------------------- end of patch ---------------------
