tests: sort: cover punctuation weight in locale collation

* tests/sort/sort-locale.sh: In a UTF-8 locale '-' carries a minimal
(shifted) weight, so 'file1' sorts before 'file-2' even though '-'
precedes '1' in the C/byte order.  This is the opposite of the C locale
result, so it also exercises the differs-from-C path.
