As discussed on issue8610, we need a way to override the automatic detection of the file system encoding - for much the same reasons we also do for the I/O encoding: the detection mechanism isn't fail-safe.

We should add a new environment variable with the same functionality as PYTHONIOENCODING:

    PYTHONFSENCODING: Encoding[:errors] used for file system.
