mailinfo: Do not use -u=<encoding>; say --encoding=<encoding>

Specifying the value for a single letter, single dash option
parameter with equal sign looked funny, and more importantly
calling the flag to override encoding from utf-8 to something
else "-u" (obviously abbreviated from "utf-8") did not make any
sense.  So spell it out.

commit to be encoded in the encoding specified by
i18n.commitencoding configuration (defaults to utf-8) by

Note that the patch is always used as is without charset
conversion, even with this flag.

--encoding=<encoding>::
Similar to -u but if the local convention is different
from what is specified by i18n.commitencoding, this flag
can be used to override it.

<msg>::
