Could be more resilient to non-utf8-encoded output #2

Description

@dabrahams

Here I think it would be better to accumulate everything in Data and only attempt to decode it when you finally need a string. Then you could (optionally) try multiple encodings and fall back to encoding-repairing conversion by appending a nul character and using String.decodeCString(p, as: UTF8.self, repairingInvalidCodeUnits: true).
