makerel: Look for =encoding lines
We only want to translate Latin1/UTF-8/UTF-16 files to EBCDIC in that
mode. Other encodings should be left alone. This commit looks for
=encoding lines indicating such alien encoded files.
Some of these previously showed up as binary files. But look for
=encoding first to give the proper message.

Log Message:
-----------
makerel: Suppress messages for known exception files
Some files aren't translatable to EBCDIC, like binary files (.gz for
example) or files that are known to be in a non-Latin1 encoding (like
Cyrillic). This adds lists of those, and suppresses mention of them.
Then should a file newly start to have a message, it will be more
noticeable.

makerel: Add ability to translate to CP 037
Besides 1047, Perl also has tables to handle CP 037, though we have no
known active systems using that. (There were protests last time we
considered removing them.)
I believe the core has improved enough that we could handle any code
page which is isomorphic to Latin1 just by adding a table. (If not
isomorphic to Latin1, that would be a big big deal to add and not worth
doing.)
Anyway, this commit adds the ability to specify CP 037 as the output of
this command, and it would be trivial to add any other CP that we were
to add tables for.
