Description
JsonTransformation.Apply should detect the encoding of the input (either stream or file) and return a stream with the same encoding.
Note that StreamReader.CurrentEncoding does not seem to work properly (see this). I have confirmed this problem through some testing.

Research direction
Start at JsonTransformation.Apply and trace how it reads streams and files before producing the result stream. Research reliable input-encoding detection rather than relying on StreamReader.CurrentEncoding, then verify that the returned stream preserves the input encoding for both supported input forms.
