[issue8611] Python3 doesn't support locale different than utf8 and an non-ASCII path (POSIX)

[STINNER Victor]

Status of this issue, 5 months later: most tests pass except test_gc test_gdb test_runpy test_sys test_wsgiref test_zipimport. Said differently, 95% of the task (or more?) is done. It's possible to run Python installed in a non-ascii directory with any locale (I tested ascii, iso-8859-1 and utf-8).
