Some protocol dissectors are now using UTF-8 characters. Notably TCP, UDP, and
SCTP are using UTF-8 \xe2\x86\x92 for a UTF-8 right arrow instead of the ascii
friendly " > ".
Unfortunately the psml and pdml output calls print_escaped_xml() which ends up
escaping UTF-8 characters. UTF-8 is the default encoding for XML and these
characters don't need really need to be escaped.
The escape UTF-8 characters end up in the psml where they are not very useful.
