[ ] Bugfix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
[x] New component
[x] Refactoring (no functional changes)
[ ] Documentation-only
What does this implement/fix? Explain your changes.
Previously, PST parsing relied on the listed encodings and failed to parse a message body if it didn't decode. EML/MBOX had implemented falling back to chardectect and finally replacing instead of failing. This implements this behavior for PST parsing too using a new safely_decode() helper method. EML/MBOX parsing has been refactored to use this helper as well.
