…tf8 characters

The Refapp currently uses MariaDB as its database, with utf8 as its default text encoding. However, MariaDB’s implementation of utf8 cannot handle all utf8 characters (for example: emojis). This PR changes it to use utf8mb4, which should handle all utf8 characters.

Testing done:

  • Tried creating an appointment with appointment notes with emojis included. This currently fails in dev3, but passes in my local refapp instance with this change.
