okfn/bibserver — Issue #171: chardet dependency

Running /bibserver/parsers/BibTexParser.py
on my machine I get ImportError: No module named chardet
I presume this is http://pypi.python.org/pypi/chardet
Would seem desirable to include chardet in the bibserver distribution, and generally to avoid dependencies as
much as possible. I note that the chardet homepage
http://chardet.feedparser.org/
is returning a 410 Gone response which is not a good sign. Seems like we should be curating our own version of chardet
if the original developer is no longer supporting it.
