This PR seeks to remove a strange prefix found in the french wordlist.

This can be confirmed with hexdump -C -n 8 bip-0039/french.txt.
```
00000000  ef bb bf 61 62 61 69 73                           |...abais|
```
The first 8 bytes should be the word abaisser.
```
00000000  61 62 61 69 73 73 65 72                           |abaisser|
```

See #537

That's the UTF8 BOM marker (3 bytes EF BB BF). You should not remove that, as it will disable automatic encoding recognition for some apps.

And further discussion in https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/pull/622
