locale: Fix signed char bug in lr_getc
The array lr->buf contains characters, which can be signed. A 0xff byte in the input could be incorrectly reported as EOF. More importantly, get_string in linereader.c converts a signed input byte to a Unicode code point using ADDWC ((uint32_t) ch), under the assumption that this decodes the ISO-8859-1 input encoding. If char is signed, this does not give the correct result. This means that ISO-8859-1 input files for localedef are not actually supported, contrary to the comment in get_string. This is a happy accident because we can therefore change the file encoding to UTF-8 without impacting backwards compatibility. While at it, remove the \32 check for MS-DOS end-of-file character (^Z).
