Mandate UTF-8 as file.encoding.

A better fix would avoid use of the platform default encoding
altogether.

Also adds a meta directive the the generated HTML to set the
encoding to UTF-8. We assume that the page that this is embedded
into follows the same conventions, either with a meta tag or with
a HTTP header.
Updates to the release notes.

 - Correct Scala IDE section, after input from @dragos.
 - Improved the bug reporting section
