Yeah. We have a few places that claim that Windows APIs can't do
UTF-8 and they have to do extra wchar_t conversions, but that doesn't
seem to be true on modern Windows. Example:
I suspect that at least when the locale name is "en-US.UTF-8", then
the regular POSIXoid strcoll_l() function should just work™ and we
could delete all that stuff and save Windows users a lot of wasted CPU
cycles.
