names of ISO 8859 encodings

Hi,

Commit 3ed1de0ddccb42bae4151c7225d3fddeab04ff43 should better
be reverted, IMO. The ISO organization or their *standards* can
be renamed to whatever names; what matters here is what the
*encoding* is commonly referred to.

The *encoding* names are standardized by IANA:
https://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets/character-sets.xhtml
The first ISO 8859 encoding there has the name
  ISO-8859-1
or
  ISO_8859-1
and the first among these is the preferred MIME name. So, please,
in encoding names:
  * revert the ISO -> ISO/IEC change,
  * change the space after ISO to a dash/hyphen-minus.

Likewise (partially) for commit d5e5db91ece5955b21ae1aedc03ba1d56d3cf423.
