gh-61456: Add Thai language codec aliases (#15079)

btwood · ambv · web-flow · commit 895d983b5c97 · 2025-04-07T13:06:32.000+02:00
Adding aliases for Thai language support. The current code page is an implementation of the windows code page.
This will alias '874', 'ms874', and 'windows_874' to cp874, adding Thai language support for those users.
