Log Message:
- Add some rather experimental code that tries to convert character sets
  between the local and the remote side. It is currently not enabled by
  default but so far seems to fix the famous UTF8 garbage crash and
  hopefully also fixes all other related issues with character sets.

  To use, start minicom with the environment variable
   MINICOM_REMOTE_CHARSET set to some iconv-string, e.g.
   MINICOM_REMOTE_CHARSET=latin1 minicom ...
  Later we will have this in some more convenient way but for now it should
  do.

  Todo: Also convert from local to remote, this isn't done currently.
