wrap: be more robust with locale
On (some?) MacOS systems there is no C.UTF-8 locale available. Instead there is a non-standard "UTF-8" (encoding only) replacement. Running wrap on MacOS results in an error: error: failed to set locale: Bad file descriptor Instead of expecting that C.UTF-8 will always be available, try to use the user set locale (either from the $LC_ALL or $LANG environment variables). If these variables are unset or if they are set to an invalid/non-existent locale, fallback on C.UTF-8. If C.UTF-8 is not available, make one last desperate attempt for this UTF-8 non-standard locale (MacOS only). aerc will always send UTF-8 encoded text to the filter commands, If the locale that we managed to load does not use the UTF-8 character encoding, exit with an explicit error instead of risking undefined behaviour.
