If the charset-normalizer Python module
(https://pypi.org/project/charset-normalizer/) is installed, Beautiful
Soup will use it to detect the character sets of incoming documents.
This is also the module used by newer versions of the Requests library.
For the sake of backwards compatibility, chardet and cchardet both take
precedence if installed. [bug=1955346]
