[asdf-devel] testing ASDF with cl-test-grid

[Faré]

OK, I've been convinced by that 100% positive cl-test-grid improvement,
and starting with ASDF 2.30.1, :utf-8 is the default value of *default-encoding*
(and 2.30.2 enforces the new default when upgrading
while preserving non-:default overrides).

Now to resurrect, update and process
https://github.com/orivej/asdf-encodings/wiki/Tracking-non-UTF-8-lisp-files-in-Quicklisp

Grepping through quicklisp finds offending files in the following directories,
whether or not they block a clean build:
