Add tool to print code page information on Windows
Since commit 00459e2b (Use UTF-8 on Windows 10 Version 1903, fix #1195,
2021-02-17), `ninja` does not always expect `build.ninja` to be encoded
in the system's ANSI code page. The expected encoding now depends on
how `ninja` is built and the version of Windows on which it is running.
Add a `-t wincodepage` tool that generators can use to ask `ninja`
what encoding it expects.
Issue: #1195
