Multibyte UTF8 characters (e.g. Japanese text) jumbled when submitted with image

[Adam]

When a Japanese user writes Japanese text in the editor and posts it, it is typically fine. However, adding an image causes any Japanese text to be jumbled (just appears as a string of ????????).

Thanks for the report, Adam.

Son, can you please check for 15.10 as well? I could confirm the behavior on our demo site.

This bug happens in 15.10 as well.
