Subject: First html-test fails when a non-utf-8 charmap is used

The first test in "src/roff/groff/tests/smoke-test_html_device.sh"
fails in locales with one octet per character,
for example ISO-8859-1 (latin1).

N.B.
Give each test a ordinal number in the output (and the total).

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #58164 (project groff):

I still have an error.

A robust way to treat input in UTF-8 is to explicitly set the
encoding for "preconv" with "-K UTF-8".

So exchange '-k' with '-K UTF-8' for the first test (in two places)

The line

LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8

can then be removed.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #58164 (project groff):

I noticed this myself when running the test suite under an is_IS.ISO-8859-1
environment.

Try the commit I just pushed, be938bab8be71b54f107a56a1025d5c916b107dc.
