Remove UTF-8 characters from comments
I've used an operating system for over 10 years now that makes UTF-8 easy. It's not called Linux or OSX.
When UTF-8 is needed, of course, then we can look again. I can't think of a single redeeming feature of placing it in the comment in this manner. It's certainy not needed.
The inclusion of UTF-8 characters is inconvenient, especially from a text terminal. I don't really want to start using compose in CROSH shell terminals on chromeos.
We might want to incorporate "no UTF-8" as a commit filter. For now, get rid of these characters.
