  "utf8" charmap in locale name is wrong

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: language-selector

  LanguageSelector/macros.py explicitly sets the charmap part of locale
  strings to "utf8" - it should be set to "UTF-8" instead. This is
  relevant because not all systems alias locale names with the former to
  the latter, and compatibility with those systems is broken.

  Rationale for this change is that the 'locales' package uses the uppercase 
hyphenated format everywhere, even going as far as replacing '.utf8' with it in 
one case:
  % dpkg -L locales | xargs grep '\.utf8'
  /usr/sbin/locale-gen:    elif [ $IS_LANG = no ] && L=`grep 
"^${1/%.utf8/.UTF-8} " /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED`; then
