Description of problem:
The XML parser in Chromium fails with XML files with some non-utf encodings including iso-8859-2 and windows-1251.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
55.0.2883.87-1.fc25

How reproducible:
Easy.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open http://xpoint.ru/ in Chromium

or

2. Open http://www.fis.cvut.cz/ in Chromium

or

3. Open attached test.xml in Chromium 


Actual results:
1. error on line 1 at column 44: Unsupported encoding windows-1251
2. error on line 1 at column 42: Unsupported encoding iso-8859-2
3. error on line 1 at column 42: Unsupported encoding iso-8859-2

Expected results:
No XML errors

Additional info:
It works in Google Chrome and Firefox. Upstream issue was closed years ago because the actual build was blamed: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=28748

Quote from there:

> This does not happen with Google Chrome. Google Chrome uses libxml that is

> Apparently, some Linux distributions have Chromium built with system libxml

> does support ISO-8859-15 and windows-1251.  (check the output of 'iconv -l'
> and see if those two charsets are listed).
