lib/util/charset: Remove autodetection of charset from LOCALE
In the past, our LOCALE would set the display charset of Samba. The display charset has now been removed. This patch removes the support code that detected the locale from the environment. We cannot safely have 'unix charset' follow the locale (at it creates files on disk and entries in databases that must not vary), so this code is unused. As an example, imagine a database is manipulated in the administrator's locale, and then read by smbd starting up in the system default locale. Or smbd restarted by the administrator rather than a startup script. Both of these situations could corrupt databases or filenames on disk. Andrew Bartlett
