Better support utf-8-with-signature and utf-8-hfs in HTML

* lisp/international/mule.el (sgml-html-meta-auto-coding-function):
Support UTF-8 with BOM and utf-8-hfs as variants of UTF-8, and
obey the buffer's encoding if it is one of these variants, instead
of re-encoding in UTF-8 proper.  (Bug#20623)
