Fix the test that broke after 3.12 changes to locale.normalize (#452)

* Fix the test that broke after 3.12 changes to locale.normalize

- On Linux, C.UTF-8 locale is now part of the standard. macOS and Windows
  use en_US.UTF-8 instead.
- Up to 3.11, `locale.normalize` was converting `C.UTF-8` into `en_US.UTF-8`.
  If you normalized the locale string, it was impossible to set `C.UTF-8`.
- In 3.12, `C.UTF-8` maps to itself.
- python/cpython#14925
- https://peps.python.org/pep-0538/
- `C.UTF-8` doesn't seem to be used anywhere else in the codebase, except for this one test.
- Other fix would be to inject a previous value to `locale.locale_alias` dictionary
  for certain platforms. However, this is part of the private implementation
  and could change without prior notice.
- More changes to the locale are scheduled for 3.15.

* Format applied

* Added changelog entry for towncrier

* Prepended + to the changelog filename, as it's not closing any GitHub ticket

* Removed TODO mentioning a broken locale in CI

* Re-enabled 3.12 test matrix for both Windows and macOS
