Per https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1405696 using UTF-8 is a compatibility problem.

This requires updating XMLHttpRequest/open-url-encoding.htm as well, unless that happens as part of fixing the Firefox "bug".

Note that this issue exists for the Fetch API too. Hopefully we can fix that before it gets too bad: web-platform-tests/wpt#7604.

Unfortunately forcing UTF-8 is not web compatible.

This also cleans up some other steps in the open() method in the process.

Tests: https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/fd6134823ff9.

Fixes #159.
