1326: utf-16 patch files don't work

A Review Board 1.0 server (running on Linux) won't accept a diff file in
UTF-16. Take any diff file and convert it with 'iconv' to UTF-16. Review
Board claims that it isn't a valid diff file.

'patch' also blows up, just for the record. This probably is a low priority
or a WONTFIX, but one of my co-workers ran into it, so I figured I'd
mention it.

Patch files have to be the same charset as the original file in the VCS.
