Describe the bug
If a subtitle has an accent, any link to it won't work. Removing the accent, the link starts working.

If I write the URL manually to the browser's navigation bar it works even with the accent.

To Reproduce
In the Markdown editor add the following title and link:
# Tést
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
A lot of text
...
[Tést](#tést)

Save the page

Expected behavior
The link should move the page to the correct heading.

Host Info (please complete the following information):

OS: Ubuntu 16.04, Docker
Wiki.js version: 2.3.81

Hello @NGPixel I think this issue can be closed because the PR is merged right ?

Even after this merge, this bug is occurring with me.
I tested with 4 browsers: Firefox Mozilla and Opera functions correctly, but Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome maintains the bug, and the page don't scroll down to headers with accents.
