README.md non-ASCII character and build

[akamhy]

Describe the bug For the build process to succeed in windows the encoding should be explicitly set to UTF-8. It is guaranteed to fail otherwise, a similar incident happened on conda-forge and now see https://github.com/akamhy/videohash/pull/83.

The following line is a must for the package to be buildable on windows. https://github.com/akamhy/waybackpy/blob/7ac9353f74a4d44b1b69e6b19cdda3451eb3db5f/setup.py#L5

But https://github.com/akamhy/waybackpy/commit/e61447effddb1ab5d68e58ff07420f18f47a1c5b#diff-60f61ab7a8d1910d86d9fda2261620314edcae5894d5aaa236b821c7256badd7 moved all stuff from setup.py to setup.cfg. This means the build will fail on windows as we are not explicitly telling to set encoding to UTF-8.

I am for removing emojis from README.md

It's messy workaround, but how about replacing emoji with images?

How do you do that? Isn't it impossible to add images in the heading in GitHub?

[akamhy]

Okay, it is possible. Thanks.

Sorry, but using GitHub-hosted equivalent emojis appears to be a better Idea. Nothing will change for the end-user as we will be using the same images they were served before(GitHub replaces emojis with equivalent images).
