[PATCH (GITK) v3 4/4] gitk: Optimize encoding name resolution using a lookup table.

Current implementation of tcl_encoding uses linear search, and is rather slow when called hundreds of times. This commit reimplements it using a lookup table, which is efficiently calculated on the first run. After that, resolution costs two calls to [info exists], and one actual fetch from the table.

This is a port of git-gui commit a1c3feb7fac7.
