Bug#847172: sagenb-export: FTBFS: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 41-42: ordinal not in range(128)

[Ximin Luo]

Control: clone -1 -2 -3
Control: reassign -2 src:nbformat
Control: retitle -2 Doesn't support non-UTF-8 filepaths
Control: severity -2 normal
Control: tags -2 + upstream
Control: forwarded -2 https://github.com/jupyter/nbformat/issues/76
Control: retitle -3 Fails when LC_CTYPE is not explicitly UTF-8
Control: severity -3 normal
Control: tags -3 + upstream
Control: forwarded -3 https://github.com/vbraun/ExportSageNB/issues/6

Instead of patching 2 Debian packages to fix this issue properly, and risking the upstreams picking different solutions and having to re-patch those 2 again, I will wait for the upstreams to pick the solutions I proposed.

In the meantime, I will work around this FTBFS by overriding LC_CTYPE specially for the tests.
