utf-8 headers are contrary to the http spec, aren't they?  Or has that changed?  (It's been a long time since I've looked at any http RFCs.)

This could be fixed by using SMTPUTF8 mode when parsing the headers, which in theory ought to be backward compatible.  We could make SMTPUTF8 the default for email.policy.http, if this is correct per the RFCs.
