Remove the _ensure_encodings module.

This was only needed for ancient versions of python built with
USE=build since the ebuilds used to remove the encodings module in
that case. Since the StreamWriter and StreamReader classes may be
deprecated in the near future, now would be a good time to stop
using them.
