[PATCH] t9129: fix UTF-8 locale detection

From

Since I don't have en_US.utf8, some tests failed:
  * UTF-8 locale not available, test skipped
  * skip 10: ISO-8859-1 should match UTF-8 in svn
  * skip 11: eucJP should match UTF-8 in svn
  * skip 12: ISO-2022-JP should match UTF-8 in svn
On my system locale -a reports:
   en_US
   en_US.ISO-8859-1
   en_US.UTF-8

According to Wikipedia utf8 is not a correct name for the UTF-8 encoding: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8#Official_name_and_incorrect_variants

And compare_svn_head_with() is explicitly using en_US.UTF-8 locale.
