Mixed encodings in dump file

Hi again,

I was a bit confused earlier with the encodings.

vss2svn thinks the comments in my vss repository are encoded in
latin1, but since it's hebrew they're encoded in cp-1255.
vss2svn then converts them from latin1 to utf-8, which makes the
comments unreadable.

To test, I isolated the a log message in the dump file, converted it
from utf-8 to latin1, and then from cp1255 to utf-8. The log message
is now encoded correctly in utf-8.

Is it possible to add a flag to vss2svn that specifies the correct
character encoding?
