git-p4: preserve utf8 BOM when importing from p4 to git

Browse Source 
Perforce has a file type "utf8" which represents a text file with
explicit BOM. utf8-encoded files *without* BOM are stored as
regular file type "text". The "utf8" file type behaves like text
in all but one important way: it is stored, internally, without
the leading 3 BOM bytes.

git-p4 has historically imported utf8-with-BOM files (files stored,
in Perforce, as type "utf8") the same way as regular text files -
losing the BOM in the process.

Under most circumstances this issue has little functional impact,
as most systems consider the BOM to be optional and redundant, but
this *is* a correctness failure, and can have lead to practical
issues for example when BOMs are explicitly included in test files,
for example in a file encoding test suite.

Fix the handling of utf8-with-BOM files when importing changes from
p4 to git, and introduce a test that checks it is working correctly.
