Bug 11906: ensure that Koha::Database uses UTF8 mode when connecting to databases
This patch fixes an issue whereby the DBIx::Class schema objects
were not connecting to the underlying database in UTF8 mode. This
most visibility manifested as patron list pages not displaying
diacritics correctly.
To test:
[1] Create a patron list, and make sure that it contains at least
one patron whose name or patron category description contains
a non-ASCII character.
[2] View the list contents; the diacritics should appear mangled.
[3] Apply the patch.
[4] View the patron list again. This time, the diacritics should
be displayed correctly. Note that Apache will also log
"list.pl: Wide character in print ...", but this is the lesser
of two evils.
[5] Verify that prove -v t/db_dependent/Koha_Database.t passes.
[6] (extra credit) Verify that t/db_dependent/Koha_Database.t
passes when connect to a PostgreSQL database.
