Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Currently, the calendar.HTMLCalendar.formatyearpage method is used to generate an html of a calendar. encoding parameter defaults to the sys.getdefaultencoding(), but it always returns "utf-8". (PEP 686 – Making UTF-8 Mode default ) I propose changing this default to 'utf-8', this makes it clearer

In a similar vein, the difflib.HtmlDiff also outputs HTML with UTF-8 encoding by default.
