This has been laying around for a bit, and built upon #991 including a regression test for a bug fixed in the PR
Essentially, some dictionary files use an encoding that's not detected by the current code. This results in the spell checker failing to correctly parse word containing single byte characters that are not UTF-8 compatible (so essentially has a byte value of
0x80or higher). One example is shown with the German dictionaryBefore the fix we get a red underline for a correctly spelled word

After the fix, it's recognised and we see that non-German words still get a red line under it.
