[cups.bugs] [MOD] STR #3832: _cupsLangPrintf() doesn't print with en_US.ASCII locale

[STR New]

Binaries (all from systemv directory) using _cupsLangPrintf()
don't print anything out when locale is set to en_US.ASCII

Problem is that there's no us-ascii.txt data file so
cupsUTF8ToCharset(encoding = CUPS_US_ASCII)
can't transcode to ASCII.

I have no idea whether this is a bug or designed so.
Work-around could be to treat CUPS_US_ASCII the same way as other
"unknown" encoding. See attached patch.
