Fix binary I/O on Windows when using redirection

If you use the poppler utilities (pdffonts, pdfimages, pdfinfo, pdftoabw,
pdftohtml, pdftoppm, pdftops, pdftotext) on Windows feed a PDF binary as input
via stdin, the program reads it in text mode instead of binary mode. Similarly
if you output a binary to stdout and redirect to a file, it will write it in
text mode. This results in the binary data being corrupted and it is a result
of Windows using text mode by default for stdin, stdout, stderr and file
streams.

The attached patch resolves this by changing the default mode to binary for
these utilities.
