[Bug 766214] gst-launch: Does not support non-UTF8 shell

--- Comment #10 from Tim-Philipp Müller <t.i.m at zen.co.uk> ---
On second thought, it seems like we can't really win. Because on *nix filenames
are byte arrays and need to be passed through as-is (must not do any
conversion), while on windows they are UTF-8 and we need to convert. But also,
that only applies to filenames and not any of the other arguments
(text='Hällo') so it's pretty difficult to handle this right across the board,
because we don't know which arguments are filenames and which not.
