Normally, --subcp always forces conversion. This really always forces
conversion, even if the UTF-8 check on the input succeeds.
Extend the --subcp to allow codepages as fallback if UTF-8 doesn't
work. So, for example --subcp=utf8:cp1250 will use UTF-8 if the input
looks like UTF-8, and will fall back to use cp1250 if the UTF-8 check
fails.
I think this should actually be the default, but on the other hand,
this changes the semantics of the option, and a user would actually
expect --subcp to force conversion, rather than silently using UTF-8
if that happens to work.
