command_output patched subprocess._text_encoding, which does not exist on Python 3.10, so all eight tests errored before their assertions. Use subprocess._text_encoding where available and map io.TextIOWrapper locale to cp1252 on older interpreters, so a subprocess with no explicit encoding decodes as cp1252 on both. Add a behavioral check that default decodes as cp1252 while explicit utf-8 stays correct.

One PR diff containing a byte that is not valid UTF-8 made git() and
merge() raise, which aborted the hourly run and dropped the overlap
comment on every PR. Both subprocess calls now pass errors="replace",
matching check_conventions.py. A test commits a Latin-1 byte and checks
the export is still found.
