Hello Gilles and Happy New Year,

We have most input streams, output streams, readers, and writers in Commons
IO that already convert null Charset names and null Charset to the platform
default through convenience APIs; but we do not do this consistently
everywhere, and not for CharsetEncoder and CharsetDecoder.

I aim to normalize this behavior to be more consistent. See the commits
since this one.

I find it much simple to maintain, document, and explain the code base with
these new methods.

Of course, you are most welcome to keep writing ternary expressions in your
call sites ;-)

Gary
