#3798: bbPress Group Forums fails installation when defines are missing

 Just encountered this issue where the "DB_CHARSET" define was not defined
 on a certain WP install's wp-config.php.

 So during group forum installation, the generated bb-config.php came
 prefilled with the following:

 `define( 'BBDB_CHARSET', 'DB_CHARSET' );`

 And this generated SQL errors preventing the bbPress tables from being
 installed.

 However, the BuddyPress Forums Setup page says everything is hunky-dory
 even when the tables were not added to the DB.

 Could be an edge-case, but might be good to add proper fallback variables
 during the creation of bb-config.php.
