[issue10614] ZipFile: add a filename_encoding argument

Please rename codepage to encoding. By the way, 437 is a codepage, cp437 is
a (python) encoding.

I don't think that ZIP is limited to windows. I uncompressed zip files many
times on various OSes, github also produces zip (and github is probably not
using windows). And codepage term is only used on windows. Mac OS 9 users
might produce mac roman filenames.
