duplicate symbol cp1252_encoding in both Encode and Encode::Byte

[Marc Lehmann]

Hi!

Both Encode and Encode::Byte export a symbol called "cp1252_encoding",
which can cause linker errors.

It would be great if that could be changed by e.g. prepending some unique
prefix to exported symbols (such as encode_ and encodebyte_ or somesuch),
which is how most other perl modules solve this problem.

Greetings,
