[issue13612] xml.etree.ElementTree says unknown encoding of a regular encoding

How about this patch (not tested it too much - just as a proof of concept).

We're pretty free in the C API exported by pyexpat through a capsule to _elementtree, so we can also add a default handler there. This API already has some general utilities like ErrorString.

ET can then simply call the handler from pyexpat.
