winebrowser: Interpret the DDE data as CHAR or WCHAR just like the shell32 dde_connect helper sends it

Hi!
The problem is not about the service name or other identifiers but rather the
obscure data pushed by the DdeClientTransaction. DDE knows nothing about the
format of this data as this is rather a convention between the client
(shell32) and the server (winebrowser).
