By default, use UTF-8 for posted content streams

Solr should assume UTF-8 encoding unless the contentType says otherwise. To change the contentType and encoding set the header value with contentType ="text/xml; charset=utf-8"

likewise, with stream.body=xxxx, will default to UTF-8 unless the stream.contentType says otherwise.
