self.encoding which we set in the init is only intended to decode gpg´s stderr which uses a system specific encoding. if we dont encode the data we pass to python-gnupg ourself, it will fallback and use self.encoding. This might be of no concern if self.encoding is set to 'utf8' and when we are on Linux which has a preferred encoding of 'utf8'. But if we are on Windows the preferred encoding for stderr is most of the time not 'utf8'. If python-gnupg tries to decode a stderr stream that is for example encoded with 'cp1252' with our set encoding of 'utf8' this will fail. The solution is to pre-encode the data before we pass it to python-gnupg, so it does not have to use self.encoding as a fallback. And set self.encoding='latin1' because latin1 will not yield exceptions on decoding errors. Also gpg itself will fallback to latin1 as stderr encoding when it cant determine the preferred encoding of a system. self.decode_errors is used for something differently, and has no influence on the situation. Fixes #8644
