locale.c: Work around a Win32 bug in localeconv()
If the locale for an individual category is set, and then the locale for
LC_CTYPE is set afterwards, it trashes (at least partially), the first
category's setting for the purposes of localeconv(). This can happen
even if LC_CTYPE is the same locale as that of the other category.
This commit implements a workaround for that, where LC_CTYPE is set,
then the other cateorgy's locale is switched to C, then to whatever is
should be. The problem doesn't seem to happen if the destination
locale is C.
I have a short C-language reproducer program that doesn't involve Perl,
but I haven't submitted it to Microsoft due to my cynicism about them
patying any attention to it.
