Fix several known web encoding issues:
* Specify accept-charset on all forms. All recent browsers, as well as IE5+, will use the encoding specified for form parameters * Unfortunately, IE5+ will not look at accept-charset unless at least one character in the form's values is not in the page's charset. Since the user can override the default charset (which Rails sets to UTF-8), we provide a hidden input containing a unicode character, forcing IE to look at the accept-charset. * Now that the vast majority of web input is UTF-8, we set the inbound parameters to UTF-8. This will eliminate many cases of incompatible encodings between ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8. * You can safely ignore params[:_snowman_] TODO: * Validate inbound text to confirm it is UTF-8 * Combine the whole_form implementations in form_helper_test and form_tag_helper_test
