What problem is this PR intended to solve?
Previously, encoding overrides were not implemented for XML::SAX::Parser#parse_memory (as reported in #918) and XML::SAX::Parser#parse_file.
However, this commit goes further and significantly simplifies and unifies the two SAX::ParserContext implementations and the two SAX::Parser implementations.
This commit also allows Encoding objects and encoding names to be passed into the SAX::ParserContext methods, and the XML memory and file methods now accept and properly use passed encodings.
Finally, this commit also backfills a lot of test coverage for the XML and the HTML4 sax parser encoding.
Closes #918
Have you included adequate test coverage?
Yes.
Does this change affect the behavior of either the C or the Java implementations?
Yes, but they are more consistent with each other.
