This should fix the breaking change introduced by 0c5c270 were the puppetdb can't be created on a system where the locale en_US.UTF-8 is not installed.
This has been also reported in in #412 (comment)
C.UTF-8 seems a better choice in this case, I'm not a locales expert enough to say if it's the perfect choice.
