Description: zap Windows Western gremlin characters
CP1252 (Windows Western) is a superset of ISO8859-1 (Latin-1).
Accidentally mixing CP1252 with ISO8859-1 is common, causing "gremlins"
- broken misfit characters.
.
Encode::ZapCP1252 detects freak characters and either transliterates
them into ASCII counterparts or translates them to UTF-8 equivalents.
.
Processed strings are assumed to contain a mixture of ASCII, ISO8859-1
and CP1252, but no actual UTF-8 characters (even if encoded as such).
For string soups including UTF-8 characters, Encoding::FixLatin may be
better suitable.
