The utf8.conf file is setup by

mysqlUtf8CnfFile=/etc/mysql/conf.d/utf8.cnf

it was originally created to ensure default-character-set=utf8mb4 but has also become a bit of a dumping ground for other settings.

This needs reviewing, renaming and tidying.

It should be renamed to cyclestreets.cnf for a start.

Ideally we should avoid needing to modify it at all, unless essential. MySQL installations use UTF-8 [mb4] by default now (rather than Swedish, in the MySQL4 era), so at least that aspect shouldn't be necessary.

See also #35 which covers the outdated collation currently being written.
