    Be forgiving of variant spellings of locale names in pg_upgrade. · 58274728

    Even though the server tries to canonicalize stored locale names, the
    platform often doesn't cooperate, so it's entirely possible that one DB
    thinks its locale is, say, "en_US.UTF-8" while the other has "en_US.utf8".
    Rather than failing, we should try to allow this where it's clearly OK.
    
    There is already pretty robust encoding lookup in encnames.c, so make
    use of that to compare the encoding parts of the names.  The locale
    identifier parts are just compared case-insensitively, which we were
    already doing.  The major problem known to exist in the field is variant
    encoding-name spellings, so hopefully this will be Good Enough.  If not,
    we can try being even laxer.
