UTF-8 Encoding

See original GitHub issue

Description

Challenges that contain some " č ć ž š đ " characters in both description and title convert into " ? " after several server restarts

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Have database settings set as: https://i.imgur.com/alwaqum.png
Restart a few times, they will convert. (At least we think it’s occuring on restarts)

Server / BentoBox information:

Database being used: MySQL
OS: Debian GNU/Linux 9
Java Version: Java™ SE Runtime Environment 18.3 (build 10.0.1+10) Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM 18.3 (build 10.0.1+10, mixed mode)

Expected behavior

Have it not converting if the encoding is correctly set.
It should be “Slatka kuća” (http://prntscr.com/mosoku), but I have to change it manually everytime it converts back.

Additional context

It doesn’t seem that they all convert in a moment, it takes a while and it does randomly.

@baticag Thanks. I fixed it for MySQL. For MariaDB it looks like it needs a different setup so I need to have that one tested. But the MySQL one works now.
