Suggestion: set encoding explicitly when reading settings assets

[semio]

Overview

I tried to run frictionless on Windows but I got following error:

~\Anaconda3\envs\gapminder\lib\site-packages\frictionless\helpers.py in <module>
     20 from urllib.parse import urlparse, parse_qs
     21 from _thread import RLock  # type: ignore
---> 22 from . import settings
     23
     24

~\Anaconda3\envs\gapminder\lib\site-packages\frictionless\settings.py in <module>
     24 REPORT_PROFILE = json.loads(read_asset("profiles", "report.json"))
     25 STATUS_PROFILE = json.loads(read_asset("profiles", "status.json"))
---> 26 SCHEMA_PROFILE = json.loads(read_asset("profiles", "schema", "general.json"))
     27 RESOURCE_PROFILE = json.loads(read_asset("profiles", "resource", "general.json"))
     28 TABULAR_RESOURCE_PROFILE = json.loads(read_asset("profiles", "resource", "tabular.json"))

~\Anaconda3\envs\gapminder\lib\site-packages\frictionless\settings.py in read_asset(*paths)
     11     dirname = os.path.dirname(__file__)
     12     with open(os.path.join(dirname, "assets", *paths)) as file:
---> 13         return file.read().strip()
     14
     15

UnicodeDecodeError: 'gbk' codec can't decode byte 0xac in position 7809: illegal multibyte sequence

This is because the default encoding for open() is platform dependent. UTF-8 mode is the default on Linux but it's not on Windows. So python tries to read the asset files with my local encoding.

I can fix this by setting PYTHONUTF8 environment variable, but I think that it could be better if you set encoding in open() to UTF8 because you have control over the assets files.
