Charset WIN1252

Hello developers,

please find attached a ZIP with sources, headers, and tables for
WIN1252-Support.

Even if UTF-8 handling will be completed in the engine, there will still be
some applications which need WIN1252 on client side. I added the new charset
to pg_enc and pg_enc2name[] after WIN1250 and before the entries which are
for client encoding only.

With best regards,

Roland Volkmann

This will work in 8.0.
