New version of mc-codepage-patch released
(patch for recoding charsets in internal viewer and internal editor).
Changes:
1) Now we use iconv instead of having our own unicode translaion tables.
Now we need only one external file: lib/mc/mc.charsets,
which contains list of possible charsets plus iconv aliases to them.
2) Charsets translation now supported in the internal EDITOR too.
Thanks to Andrew V. Samoilov, I've used his (fixed a bit) patch.
3) CODESETS macro removed, cause I don't like code pollution

Certainly the patch can't be included into main CVS tree
just now cause of autoconf/automake issues.
We need to determine if iconv is present and
may be some *.am *.in files must be fixed to accomodate
new dependences correctly, etc.
I'm not autoconf/automake expert so may be someone else will do it.
