Title: Reinstate falling back to self.text for JSON responses

A JSON response that has no encoding specified will be decoded with a detected UTF codec (compliant with the JSON RFC), but if that fails, we guessed wrong and need to fall back to charade character detection (via `self.text`). Kenneth removed this functionality (by accident?) in 1451ba0c6d395c41f86da35036fa361c3a41bc90, this reinstates it again and adds a log warning.

Fixes #1674
