* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
_winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
is greater than the old value.
This changes the equivalent functions listed for the Base-64, hex and Quoted-
Printable codecs to reflect the functions actually used. Also mention and
test the "quotetabs" setting for Quoted-Printable encoding.
str.encode, bytes.decode and bytearray.decode now use an
internal API to throw LookupError for known non-text encodings,
rather than attempting the encoding or decoding operation and
then throwing a TypeError for an unexpected output type.
The latter mechanism remains in place for third party non-text
encodings.
Backported changeset d68df99d7a57.
The codecs themselves were restored in Python 3.2, this
completes the restoration by adding back the convenience
aliases.
These aliases were originally left out due to confusing
errors when attempting to use them with the text encoding
specific convenience methods. Python 3.4 includes several
improvements to those errors, thus permitting the aliases
to be restored as well.

internal API to throw LookupError for known non-text encodings,
rather than attempting the encoding or decoding operation and

Issue #6268: More bugfixes about BOM, UTF-16 and UTF-32
* Fix seek() method of codecs.open(), don't write the BOM twice after seek(0)
* Fix reset() method of codecs, UTF-16, UTF-32 and StreamWriter classes
* test_codecs: use "w+" mode instead of "wt+". "t" mode is not supported by
Solaris or Windows, but does it really exist? I found it the in the issue.

#1616979: Add the cp720 (Arabic DOS) encoding.
Since there is no official mapping file from unicode.org,
the codec file is generated on Windows with the new genwincodec.py script.
