CASE Import may have a UTF-8 import issue.

It appears that Apache's HTTPClient uses ISO-8859-1 encoding by default, which as far as I can tell would affect all of the httpGet and httpPost calls. To be investigated if this is the cause of the other encoding issues we've had as well (such as https://github.com/cassproject/cass-editor/issues/558).
Line added to installation instructions:
On windows machines or machines where the default character encoding is not UTF-8, you will need to set a Tomcat Java parameter: -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to avoid character encoding errors when dealing with unicode characters.
As was mentioned in cassproject/cass-editor#558, forcing the default encoding to UTF8 would make sense.
