winebrowser: Convert to Unicode.
caused a regression in wine, causing that winebrowser gets wrong URL and cannot
load the requested page. The URL is displayed as a series of question marks.
The operating system normally uses a czech locale (cs_CZ.ISO-8859-2). The URLs
which are attempted to access don't contain any special characters, which would
require unicode to be used.
To reproduce, download the following freely available program
http://www.3amsystems.com/products/CPT-Master.exe ,
run it in wine and select "Buy now" from the welcome screen. The browser will
open, but its URL will be wrong. The same happens when trying to buy a game
from Steam.
Trying to use LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8 and running the program causes that there are
chinese characters in the URL, which is also totally wrong :-).
It used to work perfectly in wine 0.9.57 (both cases mentioned).
