#6447: StyledEdit doesn't check for valid utf-8

If you use StyledEdit to open a file that doesn't contain utf-8 but text
encoded in a different charset, BTextView will get confused about the
character widths and strange things will happen when editing near the
bogus characters.
Easily reproducible with /boot/system/data/Canna/default/default.canna.
So I guess StyledEdit (and the file-based BTextView::SetText()) should
check the file content for being valid utf-8 and complain if it isn't.
