Re: [whatwg/encoding] Allow conformant implementations to support non-UTF-8 encodings (#144)

Yes, I'm talking about how "UTF-8-only" is currently baked into the encoding API:

Section [7.2 ](https://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/#interface-textdecoder )for example:
>  TextEncoder object offers no label argument as it only supports UTF-8. It also offers no stream option as no encoder requires buffering of scalar values. 
...
>
```
encoder . encoding
    Returns "utf-8".```
