Summary: Add param to email.Utils.decode() 

Initial Comment:
While email.Utils.decode() is a quite useful 
function, I got a real
world problem. 

Here in Japan, I receive a lot of RFC-hostile 
messages everyday. Since
they contains illegal characters cannot be 
converted to Unicode by
JapaneseCodecs, email.Utils.decode() chokes with 
UnicodeError. My
solution is an adding optional 'errors' parameter 
which is passed to unicode()
function. This allows me to replace illegal 
characters, instead of
abandoning entire text.
