Change html manual encoding to UTF-8.
This works around GitHub's broken automatic reformatting from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 when serving static html. Remove <parameter/> from e.g. <function>malloc<parameter/></function>, add a custom template that does not append parentheses, and manually specify them, e.g. <function>malloc()</function>. This works around apparently broken XSL formatting that causes <code/> to be emitted in html (rather than <code></code>, or better yet, nothing).
