[issue23993] Use surrogateescape error handler by default in open() if the LC_CTYPE locale is C at startup

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

Without a strong support, I don't want to put this in Python 3.5. It's too late (we reached the feature freeze).

For Python 3.6, we may experiment using UTF-8 for Python filesystem encoding when the LC_CTYPE locale is POSIX ("C").
