Updates the automatic charset=utf-8 behavior for Markdown pages, where instead of responding with charset=utf-8 in the Content-Type header, Astro will now automatically add the <meta charset="utf-8"> tag instead.
This behaviour only applies to Markdown pages (.md or similar Markdown files located within src/pages/) that do not use Astro's special layout frontmatter property. It matches the rendering behaviour of other non-content pages, and retains the minimal boilerplate needed to write with non-ASCII characters when adding individual Markdown pages to your site.
If your Markdown pages use the layout frontmatter property, then HTML encoding will be handled by the designated layout component instead, and the <meta charset="utf-8"> tag will not be added to your page by default.
If you require charset=utf-8 to render your page correctly, make sure that your layout components contain the <meta charset="utf-8"> tag. You may need to add this if you have not already done so.
