088b3d6 by Guy Harris (guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Remove the UTF-8 validation from proto_tree_add_string().
    
    proto_tree_add_item() does no validation if ENC_UTF_8 is used as the
    encoding, so there's no guarantee that the value of a string field is
    valid UTF-8, and in some dissectors UTF-8 strings are fetched with other
    mechanisms and then added with proto_tree_add_string().
    
    We need to do some cleanup on string handling.
