Add pg_encoding_set_invalid()
There are cases where we cannot / do not want to error out for invalidly
encoded input. In such cases it can be useful to replace e.g. an incomplete
multi-byte characters with bytes that will trigger an error when getting
validated as part of a larger string.
Unfortunately, until now, for some encoding no such sequence existed. For
those encodings this commit removes one previously accepted input combination
- we consider that to be ok, as the chosen bytes are outside of the valid
ranges for the encodings, we just previously failed to detect that.
As we cannot add a new field to pg_wchar_table without breaking ABI, this is
implemented "in-line" in the newly added function.
