locale.c: Use meaningful initialization msg
This string is initialized to keep it out of BSS. It is supposed to be
overwritten by the first call to it. Use a message that informs the
user if there is a bug and the overwriting doesn't work properly. This
commit is the result of some freebsd releases that don't properly
implement strlcpy.

lib/locale.t: Skip testing known incompatible locales
Some locales are incompatible with Perl. The only multi-byte locale
accepted, are UTF-8 ones, for example. ISO 646 ones also can have
things like a '|' be a \w, which will create havoc with regular
expressions. This commit causes locale.t to not test such locales, and
to note which ones are skipped, and why. Doing the tests can create
segfaults. For example locales with state can have their states screwed
up by Perl, which knows nothing about that. One could argue that the
locale should be immune from bad state, and not segfault, but that is
not under Perl's control, and we will get blamed initially, anyway, when
a segfault happens.
The multi-byte locales are more incompatible with Perl than the 7-bit
locales that aren't ASCII compatible. So it could be argued that those
should be tested, but I don't want to undertake the work to separate out
the two causes from each other. The ISO 646 locales are essentially
obsolete, and there would be little pay off for doing that work.

t/loc_tools.pl: Make find_locales accept string input
Prior to this commit, in order to work properly, find_locales required
the C enum number for a locale category. This relaxes that to allow the
name of the category as well. Thus it will work seamlessly when a given
category isn't on the platform. Unless wrapped in an eval, or checked
before using, it was a potential bug to call this function at all. This
is because it didn't properly handle a string, and trying to find the
locale number might fail on a given platform.

t/loc_tools.pl: Fix not catching incompatible locales
This is looking for a warning generated by the core when a setlocale is
done to one that it deems incompatible with Perl. However, the warning
isn't generated unless locales are being used, as Perl mostly ignores
locales, so even if the background one is incompatible, it doesn't
matter.

Move bulk of POSIX::setlocale to locale.c
This is the first step in making an XS callable setlocale() which

essentially the same API.
