[Ma Lin]

PR 15732 became an overhaul:

- replace/backslashreplace/surrogateescape were wrongly described as encoding only, in fact they can also be used in decoding.
- clarify the description of surrogatepass.
- add more descriptions to each handler.
- add two REPL examples.
- add indexes for Error Handler's name.
- add default parameter values in codecs.rst
- improve term "text encoding".

PR 15732 has a screenshot of the Error Handlers section.
