Description

I've an ISO 8859-1 encoded file, which I'm Including like this:

[source]
----
include::assets/application.properties[encoding=iso-8859-1]
----

This works fine with IntelliJ Plugin AsciiDoc v0.39.7 and on the command line with Asciidoctor v2.0.20. But it doesn't when using the Gradle plugin v3.3.2, which gives me an AsciidoctorCoreException ("Failed to load AsciiDoc document - invalid byte sequence in UTF-8").

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the plugin passes encoding options to the Asciidoctor include processor. Compare with the CLI behavior that works. Check if the encoding attribute is correctly forwarded to the JRuby invocation.
