setlocale of "POSIX" on Windows

test-mbrtowc5.sh fails on native Windows: The mingw or MSVC setlocale()
understands the special locale name "C", but not the special locale name
"POSIX". This fixes it.

        Fix test-mbrtowc5.sh failure on native Windows.
        * lib/setlocale.c (setlocale_unixlike): Accept "POSIX" as an alias for
        "C".
