[issue36998] distutils sdist command fails to create MANIFEST if any filenames are undecodable

[Toshio Kuratomi]

>From my initial description:

"An sdist may contain files whose names are undecodable in the current locale.  For instance, the sdist might include some files for testing whose filenames are undecodable because that's the format of the input for that application."
