Some old iconv implementations do not have many alternate names and/or
do not match character encoding names case insensitively. These
implementations can not tell that utf-8 and UTF-8 are the same encoding
and fail when trying to do the conversion. So use the old names, which
modern implementations still support.
The following conversions were performed:
utf-8 --> UTF-8
ISO-8859-1 --> ISO8859-1
EUCJP --> eucJP
Also update t9129 and t9500 which make use of the test files in t/t3900.

It appears ISO-2022-JP is more widely accepted than ISO2022JP, so
rename it that way. We probably would need to have a way to skip
this test altogether in locale-challenged environments.

It is plausible for somebody to want to view the commit log in a
different encoding from i18n.commitencoding -- the project's
policy may be UTF-8 and the user may be using a commit message
hook to run iconv to conform to that policy (and either not have
i18n.commitencoding to default to UTF-8 or have it explicitly
set to UTF-8). Even then, Latin-1 may be more convenient for
the usual pager and the terminal the user uses.
The new variable i18n.logoutputencoding is used in preference to
i18n.commitencoding to decide what encoding to recode the log
output in when git-log and friends formats the commit log message.
