+ This assumes that `string` is UTF-8, but which appears to generally be the case: The only
+ user of this FastSaxSerializer code is FastSerializerHelper, and when its constructor
+ (sax/source/tools/fshelper.cxx) is called with bWriteHeader being true, it calls
+ FastSaxSerializer::startDocument, which writes sXmlHeader claiming encoding="UTF-8". The
+ only place that appears to construct FastSerializerHelper appears to be
+ XmlFilterBase::openFragmentStreamWithSerializer (oox/source/core/xmlfilterbase.cxx), and it
+ only passes false for bWriteHeader when the given rMediaType contains "vml" but not "+xml"
+ (see <https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/6a11add2c4ea975356cfb7bab02301788c79c904%5E!/>
+ "XLSX VML Export fixes", stating "Don't write xml headers for vml files"). But lets assume
+ that even such Vector Markup Language files are written as UTF-8.
