Summary: Add a few Windows encoding aliases

Initial Comment:
This patch adds aliases for some of the common Windows 
encodings. Windows-1252 is particularly useful because 
it is the default encoding used by Visual Studio .NET 
projects. 

Microsoft's complete encoding list can be found at:

Yeah, there are tonnes. But after my initial mistake, I 
don't want to add any without carefully checking that the 
encodings that I am aliasing are exactly identical.

I'll probably add some more later but Windows-1252 is 
probably the most immediately useful.

The link you gave doesn't work for me, but the aliases look
reasonable... aren't there more (Windows does have far more
code pages than the few you added) ?

In any case, go ahead and check them in :-)

This looks good to me!  Assiging to MAL simply for 
comment.  Marc - if you have no objections and this sounds 
reasonable, assign back to me and I will check it in.

The first patch (alias.patch) is incorrect and I'm not sure 
it the replacement (aliases.patch) is visible to anyone but 
me, so here is aliases.patch inline:
