Conversation
MicroPython now validates the encoding argument to encode/decode, and "latin-1" is not supported. So use "utf8" instead (which has the same behaviour as when MicroPython did not validate the encoding and silently passed it through using utf8). Signed-off-by: Damien George <damien@micropython.org>

Summary
MicroPython now validates the encoding argument to encode/decode, and "latin-1" is not supported. So use "utf8" instead (which has the same behaviour as when MicroPython did not validate the encoding and silently passed it through using utf8).
Testing
Added a unittest which covers these changes and runs under CI. It failed prior to the fix here.
