[New-bugs-announce] [issue27959] Add 'oem' encoding

[Steve Dower]

New submission from Steve Dower:

Currently the ANSI encoding is available on Windows as 'mbcs', however the OEM encoding (sometimes used by console-based applications) is not easily available.

The implementation is identical to PyUnicode_DecodeMBCS[Stateful], simply passing CP_OEM instead of CP_ACP.
