Bug report & patch: 4.0.2, KANA letter encoding on eucJP

[Shigehiko SASAKI]

Dear screen maintainer(s)

I found a bug about KANA(JIS-X-0201 right) letters encoding when eucJP
encoding mode.  The euc-jp specification defines that a character
following of Single-Shift-2 prefix(0x8e) SHOULD be set MSB=1, but
screen-4.0.2 masks by 0x7f and that charater's MSB is ZERO.

I think a very short patch code fixes this BUG.

Thanks.
