Summary: Improving source encoding dialog

Initial Comment:
This patch improves the error message a user gets 
when saving a file with non-ASCII characters, and no 
source encoding is specified. It does so by:

- adding a dialog EncodingMessage, which contains
  the line to add in a fixed-font entry widget, and which
  has a button to add that line to the file automatically.

- adding a configuration option EditorWindow/encoding,
  which has three possible values: none, utf-8, and
  locale. none is the default; IDLE will show this dialog
  when non-ASCII characters are encountered. utf-8
  means that files with non-ASCII characters are saved
  as utf-8-with-bom. locale means that files are saved
  in the locale's encoding; the dialog is only display if
  the source contains characters outside the locale's
  charset.
