[issue28080] Allow reading member names with bogus encodings in zipfile

[Stephen J. Turnbull]

Stephen J. Turnbull added the comment:

If you have a workaround that's available to nonprogrammers, I'd like to hear about it.  I have found none, that's why I went to the trouble to put together a patch even though I knew that the odds of actually getting it in to Python 3.6 was very low -- my patch (or Sergey Dorofeev's, but that needs work to be applicable to trunk) does everything I've ever needed, so I suppose it would do for all the use cases so far posted (except umedoblock's encoding-guessing approach, but that can be handled by many 3rd-party encoding-guessing codecs, I think, and IMO should be).
