I pushed two commits that should improve this quite a bit.

1) pastebinit will now ignore any pastebin configuration file it can't read 
because of encoding errors (in this case, the Chinese Ubuntu pastebin contained 
utf-8 characters for the submit button).
2) pastebinit will now read input files in raw byte mode and not attempt 
decoding, so it can submit utf-8 encoded files even if it's not itself running 
under an utf-8 locale

I won't however add a specific check for an utf-8 locale because while
that's easy to do on Linux, it's not so much easy when you also need to
support Windows, MacOS, ...
