Resolve "500 Error searching wiki: incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT"

Fix a regression in GitLab 10.5.

Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?

I think encode_utf8 is what I want, here, because I need the output to be UTF-8 (or at least a compatible encoding), which isn't guaranteed by encode!.
