(rmail-redecode-body): New optional argument RAW.
Don't encode body if RAW is non-nil, or if the old encoding is identical to the
new encoding, or if the body contains only eight-bit-* characters.

+Optional argument RAW, if non-nil, means don't encode the message
+before decoding it with the new CODING.  This is useful if the current

+non-nil.
