Set encoding to match RFC if none is present

[Link512]

Summary:

Since the library uses custom json parsing and not the one from requests.Response , the encoding of the data has to be ensured if it is not specified

Merger checklist:

• [ ] ALL tests have passed
• [ ] Code Review is done
• [ ] Dependencies satisfied

[Link512]

the requests library already does this if you call response.json() . Since we use custom parsing we need to emulate that

Discussed and agreed that this edge case doesn't warrant a change.
