I think the current implementaion in utf8_and_iso8859.c is fast but
too fragile against rearranging of encoding id. I modify those functions
in utf8_and_iso8859.c to do a linear search with encoding id. With
this change developers feel free to rearrange encoding id, and this
kind of problems will be gone forever. The only penalty is the time of
searching 13 entries in the encoding map. We can do a quick sort but
it will need sorted entry by encoding id and may cause similar problem
in the future. So I'm not sure it's worth doing the quick sort.
Propsed patch attached.

I think it's OK, since the last missing entry will never be visited.
