added a rough doc so I won't forget what these encodings actually do.

+
+x-utf8-* encodings are encodings to display subset of Unicode
+characters in UTF-8 format. The subset is set to characters in:
+
+  cp932 + x-sjis-{career} + (characters mapped from other careers)
+
+When encoding Unicode characters, it automatically does conversion
+from other career based encodings.
+
+For example,
+
+  # KDDI 'Sunny' character in UTF-8
+  my $bytes = "\xEE\xBD\xA0";
+  Encode::from_to($bytes, "utf-8" => "x-utf8-docomo");
+  # Now $bytes has DoCoMo 'Sunny' character in UTF-8
+
+Note that these encodings are B<encode only> and can't be used for
+decoding characters.
