Description

Function convert_chars defined in wp-includes/formatting.php and used in many filters in wp-includes/default-filters.php does not handle two characters properly.

The subjects are two special Z characters: "Ž" and "ž".

convert_chars performs the following replacements:

	$wp_htmltranswinuni = array(
...
	'Ž' => 'ž',
...
	'ž' => '',
...

This lower-cases "Ž" to "ž" and also erases "ž".

Instead, the code should be as follows:

	$wp_htmltranswinuni = array(
...
	'Ž' => 'Ž',
...
	'ž' => 'ž',
...
