strerror: Revert to local codepage for Windows error string
- Change get_winapi_error() to return the error string in the local codepage instead of UTF-8 encoding. Two weeks ago bed5f84 fixed get_winapi_error() to work on xbox, but it also changed the error string's encoding from local codepage to UTF-8. We return the local codepage version of the error string because if it is output to the user's terminal it will likely be with functions which expect the local codepage (eg fprintf, failf, infof). This is essentially a partial revert of bed5f84. The support for xbox remains but the error string is reverted back to local codepage.
