Support MS-Windows file names that use characters outside of ANSI codepage.
src/w32.c (get_file_security, set_file_security)
(create_symbolic_link): Separate pointers and boolean flags for
ANSI and Unicode APIs. Use the latter if w32_unicode_filenames is
non-zero, else the former.
(codepage_for_filenames, filename_to_utf16, )
(filename_from_utf16, filename_to_ansi, filename_from_ansi): New
functions.
(init_user_info): Allow $HOME and $SHELL to include non-ANSI
characters.
(normalize_filename): Lose the DBCS code, now works on UTF-8.
Accept only one argument; all callers changed.
(dostounix_filename): Remove the second argument, now works in
UTF-8. All callers changed.
(parse_root): Lose DBCS code.
(get_long_basename, w32_get_short_filename, init_environment)
(GetCachedVolumeInformation, sys_readdir, open_unc_volume)
(read_unc_volume, logon_network_drive, faccessat, sys_chdir)
(sys_chmod, sys_creat, sys_fopen, sys_link, sys_mkdir, sys_open)
(sys_rename_replace, sys_rmdir, sys_unlink, stat_worker, utime)
(is_symlink, readlink, chase_symlinks, w32_delayed_load): Work in
Unicode mode if w32_unicode_filenames is non-zero, in ANSI mode
otherwise.
(ansi_encode_filename): New function.
(get_emacs_configuration, get_emacs_configuration_options):
Functions deleted.
(add_volume_info, GetCachedVolumeInformation): Run the input file
name through unixtodos_filename, to ensure it is stored and
referenced in canonical form.
(get_volume_info): Lose the DBCS code, now works in UTF-8.
(logon_network_drive, sys_link, utime): Improve error handling.
(sys_access): New function.
(hashval, generate_inode_val): Unused functions deleted.
(symlink, readlink, readlinkat): Lose DBCS code, now works in UTF-8.
(check_windows_init_file): Convert error message from UTF-8 to
ANSI codepage, for display in the message box.
(globals_of_w32): Set w32_unicode_filenames according to the OS
version.
src/w32term.c (construct_drag_n_drop): Work in Unicode mode when
w32_unicode_filenames is non-zero, ANSI mode otherwise.
(syms_of_w32term): Declare w32-unicode-filenames.
src/w32proc.c (new_child, delete_child): Remove code that handled
unused pending_deletion and input_file members of the child struct.
(create_child, sys_spawnve): Convert all file names to ANSI
codepage. Use ANSI APIs explicitly; forcibly fail if any file
name cannot be encoded in ANSI codepage. Don't use
unixtodos_filename, mirror slashes by hand.
(record_infile, record_pending_deletion): Functions deleted.
(Fw32_short_file_name): Call w32_get_short_filename instead of
GetShortPathName.
src/w32notify.c (add_watch): Work in Unicode mode when
w32_unicode_filenames is non-zero, ANSI mode otherwise.
(Fw32notify_add_watch): Rewrite to avoid using GetFullPathName;
instead, do the same with Lisp primitives.
src/w32fns.c (file_dialog_callback, Fx_file_dialog)
(Fsystem_move_file_to_trash, Fw32_shell_execute)
(Ffile_system_info, Fdefault_printer_name): Work in Unicode mode
when w32_unicode_filenames is non-zero, ANSI mode otherwise.
(Fw32_shell_execute): Improve error reporting.
(Fdefault_printer_name): Ifdef away for Cygwin.
src/w32.h (struct _child_process): Remove input_file and
pending_deletion members that are no longer used.
(dostounix_filename, w32_get_short_filename, filename_from_ansi)
(filename_to_ansi, filename_from_utf16, filename_to_utf16)
(ansi_encode_filename): New and updated prototypes.
src/unexw32.c (open_input_file, open_output_file, unexec): Use ANSI
APIs explicitly.
(unexec): Don't use dostounix_filename, it expects a file name in
UTF-8. Instead, mirror backslashes by hand. Convert NEW_NAME to
ANSI encoding.
src/fileio.c (Ffile_name_directory, file_name_as_directory)
(directory_file_name, Fexpand_file_name)
(Fsubstitute_in_file_name) [WINDOWSNT]: Adapt to the change in
arguments of dostounix_filename.
(Fexpand_file_name) [WINDOWSNT]: Convert value of $HOME to UTF-8.
use MAX_UTF8_PATH for size of file-name strings.
(emacs_readlinkat): Build an explicitly unibyte string for file
names.
(syms_of_fileio) <file-name-coding-system>
default-file-name-coding-system>: Mention MS-Windows peculiarities.
src/emacs.c (init_cmdargs) [WINDOWSNT]: Convert argv[0] to UTF-8.
(main) [WINDOWSNT]: Convert the argv[] elements that are files or
directories to UTF-8.
(decode_env_path) [WINDOWSNT]: Convert file names taken from the
environment, and each element of the input PATH, to UTF-8.
src/dired.c (file_attributes): Use build_unibyte_string explicitly
to make Lisp strings from user and group names.
src/coding.h (ENCODE_FILE, DECODE_FILE): Just call encode_file and
decode_file.
src/coding.c (decode_file_name, encode_file_name): New functions.
src/termcap.c (tgetent): Adapt to the change in arguments of
dostounix_filename.
src/sysdep.c (sys_subshell) [WINDOWSNT]: Use MAX_UTF8_PATH for file
names.
src/msdos.c (dostounix_filename, init_environment): Adapt to the
change in arguments of dostounix_filename.
src/image.c (xpm_load, tiff_load, gif_load, imagemagick_load)
[WINDOWSNT]: Encode file names passed to the image libraries in
ANSI codepage.
src/gnutls.c (Fgnutls_boot): Encode all file names passed to GnuTLS.
[WINDOWSNT]: Convert file names to the current ANSI codepage.

arguments of dostounix_filename.
