On Linux, I think most people wants UTF-8:surrogateescape by default, without 
fighting against locale and environment variables.

There are already `#if defined(__APPLE__) || defined(__ANDROID__)` path for it.
How about adding configure option to use same logic? (say 
`--with-encoding=(locale|utf-8)`, preferred encoding is changed in same way).

It may help many people building Python themselves without having root 
privilege for generating C.UTF-8 locale.
