I was wrong, if you have ucs-bom at the start of fileencodings it will
detect UTF-16 encodings as well, set the 'fileencoding' appropriately
and thus save it back in the same encoding.
So you might need to add utf-16le and uft-16be to the 'fileencodings'
only if you have some file without a BOM, but actually 'fileencodings'
seems quite stupid and it is likely that you'll still need to specify
the correct encoding manually when opening the file.

I now saw that it stands for UTF-16BE
