convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'ls/checkout-encoding
UTF supports lossless conversion round tripping and conversions between
UTF and other encodings are mostly round trip safe as Unicode aims to be
a superset of all other character encodings. However, certain encodings
(e.g. SHIFT-JIS) are known to have round trip issues [1].
Add 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding', which contains a comma separated
list of encodings, to define for what encodings Git should check the
conversion round trip if they are used in the 'working-tree-encoding'
attribute.
Set SHIFT-JIS as default value for 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'.
