Re: [Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] Remove 'encoding=iso-8859-1' from json.dumps()

The encoding option for json.dumps() is used to indicate the charsets of the passed in str. Currently, we use the encoding of iso-8859-1, but actually we don't have any data encoded in iso-8859-1. It doesn't cause any problem because the strings in the data passed are ascii chars or unicode. If we pass a utf-8 str, it will canse an expected result.

So we could remove the option, and after that it can accept utf-8 str too because json.dumps use utf-8 as default encoding.
