*.pm and *.pod are easy to fix but *.enc is tough because Encode::Tcl

For the time being I will fix *.pod and *.pm but I am stoked on
*.euc. Tell me what you guys think.
I think the easiest solution to this is, as the title says, replace
all *.enc to *.ucm and detach Encode::Tcl from Encode package, Because
*.ucm can independently set encoding name from file name. I know NI-S
would second that but I wonder what Sadahiro-san would feel.
Upon Sadahiro-san's OK, I will go ahead do so. Here is my strategy;
0. Generate all the necessary *.ucm via
perl5.7.3 ./compile -n $encname -o Encode/$encname.ucm
Encode/$encname.enc
1. rename non-8.3-compliant *.ucm and reflect changes to */Makefile.PL
2. detach Encode::Tcl and upload it to CPAN.
I think the last part of 2. should be done by Sadahiro-san. I will
detach Encode::Tcl and send it to Sadahiro-san. How about that?
