[PATCH V2] t0204: Removed TC emitting ISO-8859-1 from our UTF-8 *.mo files

[Torsten Bögershausen]

Removed this test case:
gettext: Emitting ISO-8859-1 from our UTF-8 *.mo files / Runes

The removed test case tried to show UTF-8 encoded text in a ISO-8859-1
locale with code points that don't fit into ISO-8859-1.
Some systems convert these code points into question marks,
(that is what the test expects) while other don't support
an ISO-8859-1 locale anymore and use UTF-8 anyway.

Remove the text case as there is no reason to insist that the fall back
behaviour is to convert code points out of range into question marks.

I don't think so.

Better a good remove than a bad improve

Junio, thanks for the replay, 
I tried to convert your comments into a commit message.
