Update RunTest to handle locales better.

 12. A UTF pattern containing a "not" match of a non-ASCII character and a 
 subroutine reference could loop at compile time. Example: /[^\xff]((?1))/.
 
+13. The locale test (RunTest 3) has been upgraded. It now checks that a locale 
+that is found in the output of "locale -a" can actually be set by pcre2test 
+before it is accepted. Previously, in an environment where a locale was listed 
+but would not set (an example does exist), the test would "pass" without 
+actually doing anything. Also the fr_CA locale has been added to the list of 
+locales that can be used.
