Explicitly specify encoding

The update to pylint means we were failing because open()
doesn't specify the encoding everywhere.  I have now specified utf-8
everywhere.  This was patchy before, and is default behaviour on the
Pi.  There's a slim chance it will cause some issues on Windows, but
that shouldn't affect anyone outside the developers.

I've also ignored a couple of new spurious warnings, and explicitly
ignored some unused variables.
