compile failure in server/util_ebcdic.c, native iconv needs charset string "ISO8859-1"

(found on zOS using 2.2.3 with APR 1.2.7)

zOS only recognizes the string "ISO8859-1", other platform require
"ISO-8859-1". It is using
native iconv, not apr-iconv, so can not use apr-iconv/ccs/charset.aliases to
map the strings.

How can apr-util hide the difference when using native iconv()
(provide a symbol that means ISO-8859-1, check for alternate charset names
in the code, or ??)

==========================================================
For reference - Revision 104078 server/util_ebcdic.c changed from using
"ISO8859-1" to "ISO-8859-1":

Use standardized names for ISO-8859-1, see
http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets
(Using the name iso8859-1 may still work, because it is aliased in
apr-iconv/ccs/charset.aliases)
