Fix PR base diff file when checked out file is UTF-8

It appears Visual Studio likes to add UTF-8 headers to files it touches. 😕 This seems to change them from being the default Western European (Windows-1252) to being UTF-8.
When creating a temp file to diff against, we should save it as UTF-8, if the working file has been changed to UTF-8.
