[Mimedefang] Content-type charset

Why would you want to do that?

If it isn't set, and none of the high bits are turned on,
then it's implicitly the default, USASCII.

If there are high-bit characters and it isn't set, then it's
ambiguous (though likely ISO-8859-1)... and you can't
reliably guess.

Fix the MUA if it's not working properly.
