Handle undecodable characters in description
We've historically expected that the return values from libmagic are ascii, since they are constant strings or stuff like dates/numbers. In some cases, however, it will return information like the title of the document in the doc's native character set, which is unknown to us. This produces decode errors. I have not been able to get a document that triggers this behavior, but the safest change is to decode with 'backslashreplace', which escapes undecodable characters with a backslash.
