[PATCH v4] t: use user-specified utf-8 locale for testing svn

In some test-cases, UTF-8 locale is required. To find such locale, we're using the first available UTF-8 locale that returned by "locale -a".

However, the locale(1) utility is unavailable on some systems, e.g. Linux with musl libc.

However, without "locale -a", we can't guess provided UTF-8 locale.

Add a Makefile knob GIT_TEST_UTF8_LOCALE and activate it for linux-musl in our CI system.

Rename t/lib-git-svn.sh:prepare_a_utf8_locale to prepare_utf8_locale, since we no longer prepare the variable named "a_utf8_locale", but set up a fallback value for GIT_TEST_UTF8_LOCALE instead. The fallback will be LC_ALL, LANG environment variable, or the first UTF-8 locale from output of "locale -a", in that order.

Ahh, I scanned your comment too fast. Sorry for the noise.
Thanks for the quick turn-around.
