You'll need to downsample to 8-bit planar (4:2:0 YUV) before encoding if you want Blu-ray delivery.

I think the point of the question was about how x264 reduces it to 8-bits - does it simply truncate the extra bits, or does it do dithering?
Of course, as DS pointed out, it doesn't handle it at all. You'd need to find some other software to do the 10→8 conversion for you.
