Fix: crash on failure to set locale (#529)

setlocale() can fail, returning NULL, if the user has an invalid (or
missing) locale set in the LANG environment variable.

In my case, this happens when using VS Code's integrated terminal to
launch a fuse-based filesystem. A bug (fix upcoming) results in VS Code
setting an invalid locale.

iconv_help() currently passes the return value of setlocale(...)
directly to strdup() without checking if it is NULL, resulting in a
crash.

To reproduce, simply set LANG="something_invalid" and call
fuse_lib_help().

Stack trace when the process receives `SIGSEGV`:

iconv_help() is modified to print an error when setlocale() fails.
It then carries on printing the iconv module's help.

Reading setlocale(3), it seems that the strdup() of the result was
not necessary.
