[SIGNED-OFF] Bug 11054: Specify utf8 encoding when creating a child record

When the only non-ascii characters in a new child record
are latin + diacritic in the range covered by Latin-1 they
are not being added to a new child record correctly encoded.
Explicitly setting the record's encodiing ensures that
they are interpreted correctly.

see "Unicode Bug" in perldoc perlunicode for background on
why these characters are special

Signed-off-by: Bernardo Gonzalez Kriegel <bgkriegel at gmail.com>
Work as described. No koha-qa errors

Test
search for a record with diacritics on author or title
press New Child Record
without patch, 773's with mangled chars
with patch, all fine

This has nothing to do with major problems of encoding,
here we create a new record and as CPAN page states,
default encoding is MARC-8, so it's the right solution.
