AddCharset patch for Apache

Here is something that I think wasn't yet mentioned on this page,
but is very convenient for internationalized servers:

[from http://www.w3.org/International/O-HTTP-charset.html,
which I just updated].

   How to make the server send out appropriate 'charset' information
   depends on the server. For [8]Apache, this can be done via the
   [9]AddType directive. In this case, both the MIME type (e.g.
   text/html) and the 'charset' have to be indicated in the same
   directive. It is often more convenient to add these two things
   separately; a [10]patch for Apache makes this possible with a new
   [11]AddCharset directive. [if you know how to do this configuration on
   some other server, please [12]tell me, so that I can add it here].
