editor.getWordChars() doesn't work in PythonScript 3.0.14

[cmagnush]

Using Notepad++ 8.4.4 x64 and PythonScript_Full_3.0.14.0_x64.zip:

editor.getWordChars() triggers this error message:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte

In PythonScript 2.0.0 (using the same Notepad++ binary), the method returns a string containing the bytes/chars 0xFF-0x80, followed by z-a, _, Z-A, and 9-0 (in that order). That doesn't look like an UTF-8 string...

See https://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html#SCI_GETWORDCHARS

For multi-byte encodings, this API will not return meaningful values for 0x80 and above.

, so it needs to be checked if change in the encoding could fix that problem.

Current python 2 output:

>>> editor.getWordChars()

With python 3 after adding an iso_latin_1_to_utf8 conversion I get:

>>> editor.getWordChars()
