Not supporting en_001, en_150 or en_US_POSIX locale about locale HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @mattjgalloway . I'm currently working on getting your PR fixing this into the next release (no worries about the conflicts, I'll resolve those)

I was wondering whether you had any expectation on how en_US_POSIX is handled?
As far as I've understood this is basically the "C" locale in C++, aka "POSIX". So I think it makes sense to treat it as an alias so the output would be:

LOCALE NAME: C
LOCALE LANG:
LOCALE COUNTRY:
LOCALE ENCODING:
LOCALE UTF8: 0

You could run into this on Linux or when using boost::locale::generator("en_US_POSIX") as the WinAPI will not return that as the "system locale".

@Flamefire Thanks for coming back on this!

Yes I think that would be right for en_US_POSIX.
