Problem Description

$ pdoc foo.py -o docs

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

    raise RuntimeError(f"Error importing {module}") from e
RuntimeError: Error importing foo

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a file called foo.py with the following content:

   import sys
   sys.stdout.reconfigure(encoding='utf-8')
   

2. Run pdoc foo.py -o docs to try to render documentation for that file.
