tmac/LOCALIZATION: Correct and clarify.
Loading a character set translation macro file is important less for
localized input (which is likely to be in UTF-8 and then preconv(1)ed
anyway) as for enabling troff to interpret the hyphenation pattern
files, which historically have been in single-byte 8-bit encodings.
See <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57594#comment9>.
