Description
**Describe the bug**
This bug from the SDK seems to exist in the Toolkit as well:
https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-net/issues/1587
So when trying to save a metadata with non US-ASCII characters it gives an error about faulty signature
**To Reproduce**
1. Start uploading a item
2. Add a metadata value containing a non US-ASCII character (for example £)
3. Press OK
4. Enjoy error
**Expected behavior**
For it to be saved, but encoded
BONUS:
Display the un-encoded value when retriving the properties again, let the encoding be underneath the hood
**Screenshots**
**Computer (please complete the following information):**
- Windows Version: Win 10
- Visual Studio Version: 2019
- AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio Version: 1.17.1.0

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio by uploading an item with metadata containing a non-US-ASCII character such as £, then compare the behavior with the linked AWS SDK issue. Trace the metadata save and retrieval flow; done means the value saves without a faulty-signature error and is displayed unencoded when properties are retrieved.
