Win32: Unicode environment (incoming)
Convert environment from UTF-16 to UTF-8 on startup. No changes to getenv() are necessary, as the MSVCRT version is implemented on top of char **environ. However, putenv / _wputenv from MSVCRT no longer work, for two reasons: 1. they try to keep environ, _wenviron and the Win32 process environment in sync, using the default system encoding instead of UTF-8 to convert between charsets 2. msysgit and MSVCRT use different allocators, memory allocated in git cannot be freed by the CRT and vice versa Implement mingw_putenv using the env_setenv helper function from the environment merge code. Note that in case of memory allocation failure, putenv now dies with error message (due to xrealloc) instead of failing with ENOMEM. As git assumes setenv / putenv to always succeed, this prevents it from continuing with incorrect settings.
