Win32: autoindex module doesn't support Unicode names

Description

Functions for traversing directories use ANSI versions of FindFirstFile() and FindNextFile(), so any characters in filenames besides basic latin become broken.

Proposed patch fix this issue converting WCHAR names to utf-8.

Ack, it needs to be fixed. The patch in question needs more work. (And please also consider reading http://nginx.org/en/docs/contributing_changes.html, thanks.)

I forgot to mention than behavior of autoindex module depends on selected charset. The patch does work with 'charset utf-8' directive in config file, but probably will give inconsistent results with other settings.

For the record, I've submitted a patch series to address various issues with non-ASCII names on Windows, including this one. In particular, the following patch fixes issues with autoindex:

Review and testing appreciated.

In 8130:b0a06c50c1b4/nginx:

Win32: non-ASCII names support in autoindex (ticket #458).

Notably, ngx_open_dir() now supports opening directories with non-ASCII
characters, and directory entries returned by ngx_read_dir() are properly
converted to UTF-8.
