Summary: mbcs encoding should skip encodings package

Initial Comment:
PyUnicode_Decode and PyUnicode_AsEncodedString should
have a "short circuit" for the 'mbcs' encoding, as
already exists for "utf8" and "latin1" and "ascii". 
This prevents Win9x from using the encodings module for
all os.* functions with unicode support.  This also
adds PyUnicode_AsMBCSString, which was declared but not
implemented.

If no objections within a few days, I will check this in.
