Form POST with unicode values is not encoded properly

[dobesv]

When you do a post() with unicode data in it, it won't be encoded properly unless you specify a content_type with charset=utf8.

However, the mime type application/x-www-form-urlencoded doesn't officially support a charset property. If the server accepts multiple charsets it has to get that information elsewhere.

I think it might be reasonable to encode any unicode keys or values in a form to UTF-8 by default if there is no content_type or no charset on the content_type.
