Setup C.UTF-8 as a RPM install lang in yum-minimal

Browse Source 
The yum-minimal element was configuring C, en_US, and en_US.UTF-8 as
languages to be installed by packages notably leaving out C.UTF-8. This
appears to be due to CentOS 7 not supporting C.UTF-8 (its glibc was too
old). Since then CentOS 8, CentOS 8 Stream, and CentOS 9 Stream all
reportedly support C.UTF-8. Since we don't support CentOS 7 any longer
it should be safe to update yum-minimal to include C.UTF-8.

This ensures we have modern C locales available for use which are
starting to be expected (for example Ansible apparently wants a UTF8
locale and some hardcode it to use C.UTF-8).
