Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Rust command-line utility's current UTF-8 handling, then determine how UTF-16 and UTF-32 should be detected and represented; the work is done when both encodings are supported alongside UTF-8 and verified by suitable tests.
