Searching non-ASCII characters in geocode_tbl() results in Unicode characters in the result

[JMPivette]

I guess this issue is not directly linked to banR but to the underlying API.

If one of the searched address contains non-ASCII characters we end up with Unicode characters in the results instead of UTF-8. (\xe2 instead of â for example):

In the following example using évron instead of evron results in a different encoding for my second search (Chatelaillon).

location_tbl <- tibble::tibble(city = c("évron", "Chatelaillon"))
banR::geocode_tbl(location_tbl, city)

I found the underlying issue here:
https://github.com/etalab/adresse.data.gouv.fr/issues/622

So it happens only when there are less than 5 rows in the tibble and there are non-ASCII characters.

For information, my workaround so far is to rename my search using stringi::stri_trans_general(id = "Latin-ASCII")
