Log message:
In pod2man(1), enable UTF-8 output by default and provide a --no-utf8
command line option to disable it. The new default improves the
formatting of Perl manuals using UTF-8 characters (for example
perlunicook(1)) with man(1) and mandoc(1) no matter which locale
the user has set.
Issue discovered by and fix OK by afresh1@.
Trying to push this change upstream would make no sense. It's the
right thing to do only because we decided to not support any other
locales except ASCII and UTF-8. A system trying to provide arbitrary
locales simply cannot handle manuals containing UTF-8 characters
at build time, so the change would produce wrong results.
