[issue26928] _bootlocale imports locale at startup on Android, causing test_site to fail

STINNER Victor added the comment:

If it is not possible to change the locale, it makes sense to hardcode utf8.

Note: to avoid mojibake, it's better if sys.getfilesystemencoding() and
locale.getpreferredencoding(False) are equal. I understand that both must
be utf8.
