    This function uses the chardet package for detecting the encoding of a
    file.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename: str
        Path to a file

    try_cchardet: bool
        Whether to run detection using cChardet if it is available. This can be
        faster, but may give different results than using chardet.

    Returns
    -------
    encoding: str
        Encoding of the file.
