Document changes on mbcs encoding

opaque C pointers in Python objects, the :ctype:`PyCapsule` API should be used
instead; the new type has a well-defined interface for passing typing safety
information and a less complicated signature for calling a destructor.
* mbcs encoding doesn't ignore the error handler argument anymore. By default
(strict mode), it raises an UnicodeDecodeError on undecodable byte sequence
and UnicodeEncodeError on unencodable character. To get the mbcs encoding of
Python 3.1, use ``'ignore'`` error handler to decode and ``'replace'`` error
handler to encode. mbcs now supports ``'strict'`` and ``'ignore'`` error
handlers for decoding, and ``'strict'`` and ``'replace'`` for encoding.
