Yes, the assumption in rfc2368-unhexify-string is that percent
escaping is being done of ASCII characters.

epg--decode-percent-escape-as-utf-8 in epg.el does the
right thing, it could be renamed and moved. I think rfc2047 decoding
needs doing on the result as well. Lars, should I just stick these in
rfc2368.el but named something like rfc6068-unhexify-string and
rfc6068-decode-2047-string or something?
