Public bug reported:

[Impact]

When gettext translate locale modifiers, the output encoding is not set
to UTF-8, so non-ascii letters are replaced with question marks. A fix
has been committed upstream, and the proposed fix cherry picks that
commit.

[Test Case]

* Install the Serbian language, switch to Serbian — Latin, and relogin

* Open Settings -> Region & Language and find that the current language
is not labeled correctly

* Upgrade libgnome-desktop-3-19 and friends from focal-proposed

* Open Settings -> Region & Language and find that the current language
label is now correct

[Regression Potential]
