To help work out what file encodings are present in the wild, in order to improve the UX for file parsing related errors that are believe to be due to encoding issues. The `file --brief` command will return values like: - `ASCII text` - `Unicode text, UTF-8 (with BOM) text` - `Unicode text, UTF-16, little-endian text, with CRLF line terminators` These metrics will be removed later. See: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/noble/en/man1/file.1.html GUS-W-20049083.
