Don't fail compilation for modules that contain invalid UTF-8
The default encoding for Erlang modules is now UTF-8, and the
compilation would fail if a module contained byte sequences that
are not valid UTF-8 sequences.
In a large project with say many hundreds of Erlang modules
with names of developers such as "Björn" or "Håkan" encoded in
latin-1, that could mean that many hundreds of files would need
to be modified just to get started testing OTP 17.
As a temporary measure to ease the transition, automatically
fall back to the latin-1 encoding with a warning for any module
that contains invalid byte sequences and for which no encoding
has been specified.
The intention is to remove this workaround in OTP 18 or 19.
