Server Info (please complete the following information):

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Browser: chrome
RMM Version (as shown in top left of web UI): 0.7.2

Installation Method:

[X ] Standard

Describe the bug
Scripts that contain special characters like umlauts "äöüß" cannot be edited/saved
Uploading them works without error, but the characters are removed from the scripts.
When trying to edit a script and adding those characters, the script can't be saved.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create Umlauts.ps1 write-output "äöüß"
Upload Umlauts.ps1
View Code of Umlauts.ps1

And

Go to script manager
Click new script
Type code write-output "äöüß"
Save new script
View code of new script

And

Go to script manager
Press Edit Code of previously created/uploaded Umlauts.ps1
Add write-output "äöüß"
Try to save

Expected behavior

The script should be uploaded containing the code write-output "äöüß"
The script should be created and have write-output "äöüß" as code
The script should be saved and have write-output "äöüß" as code

Additional context
In previous versions it was possible to at least upload or create a new script containing umlauts, without them being removed from the script

I just make some modifications to how the scripts are stored in the database. This should help with the special characters. Please test in the next release
