font-encoding in scs2pdf

We use a ccsid of 273 (german). With TN5250_CCSIDMAP set to 273 german
"umlauts" don't show right. I changed MacRomanEncoding in scs2pdf.c
to WinAnsiEncoding, and all results were OK now.

As Linux and most other flavors of Unix use latin1 by default (Darwin
resp. Mac OS X ??), it would be better, to use WinAnsiEncoding. What we
really need is a mapping between ccsid and font-encoding. I do not know
anything about PDF, but in PostScript you have to supply a encoding
vector.
