Bug Description

If a CDATA section contains UTF-8 characters, Inkscape destroys them upon saving as it does not seem to handle the encoding properly.

Sample file attached,
  "äöü | € | 你"
becomes
  "巼 | ̠| `"
(or something similar as I'm not sure wether Launchpad handles this properly)

Reproduced in
- Inkscape 0.92.3 (2405546, 2018-03-11)
- Inkscape 0.92+devel (07078f49b9, 2018-09-23)
