[pve-devel] [RFC common 1/2] section config: prepare for supporting UTF-8 encoded configurations

[Fiona Ebner]

Configurations registered as UTF-8 will be decoded after reading to
Perl's internal string format and then contain wide characters. The
Digest::SHA::sha1_hex() function croaks on wide characters, so encode
again before calling the function if there are wide characters.
