[Koha-patches] [PATCH] [SIGNED-OFF] Bug 6371 Item Types description not properly displayed if not pure ASCII

[Katrin Fischer]

From: Frédéric Demians <f.demians at tamil.fr>

In several places, C4::ItemType module is used to retrieve item types
and their description. If the description text contains non-ASCII
characters, those characters are not properly displayed.

This bug can be seen in:

  - 4xx plugin of a UNIMARC DB
  - Home > Admin > Item circulation alerts
  - others?...

Signed-off-by: Katrin Fischer <Katrin.Fischer.83 at web.de>
  - Fixes display probems in circulation alerts and 4xx UNIMARC plugin
  - display in other places looks ok with and without patch
