[issue2857] add codec for java modified utf-8

[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal at egenix.com> added the comment:

TCL only uses the codec for internal represenation. You might want to
interface to TCL at the C level and use the codec there, but is that
really a good reason to include the codec in the Python stdlib ?

Dito for parsing Lucene indexes.

I think you're better off writing your own codec and registering it with
the Python codec registry at application start-up time.
