Yay officially supported C.UTF-8.

The latest edition of the script is
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-08/msg01199.html and I've
taken it as far as I can with my complete lack of knowledge of what
actually goes in locale definitions. I would like to think we could
get rid of all of the uses of non-NFC strings in the definition files,
but I really don't know if that's possible, or what would be a good
way to express to the script that some non-normalized strings are
intentional. I'm not planning on working on it any more without a
whole bunch of guidance from Mike, Rafal, and company.
