💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so listen. the encoding event shows up when a test file is like "hey, here's the encoding i want used when my output gets formatted" 🦋

this event is intended to be produced by formatter classes, and it's there so you can interpret test names, message contents, etc. properly. no cap, it's literally the vibe-setter for your bytes 💖

use Test2::Event::Encoding;

my $ctx = context();
my $event = $ctx->send_event('Encoding', encoding => 'UTF-8');
