installer: Fix locale installation.

Browse source 
For some mysterious reason, calling 'setlocale' as first instruction of
installer-builder does not install unicode support correctly. So set LANG env
variable and start the installer until this is understood.

* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Wrap installer-builder to have the
opportunity to set LANG environment variable before starting the installer.
