[issue8784] tarfile/Windows: Don't use mbcs as the default encoding

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

FWIW, I agree with Lars: the main use of tar files under Windows is when they come from other systems. Windows users almost never generate tar files by themselves; they will generate zip, rar or 7z files instead.
