When trying to use lepton on a file with a non English name, ie 你好.jpg, lepton reports the error

I noticed there was a similar issue in https://github.com/mozilla/mozjpeg/issues/354

I tried compiling it myself, but couldn't seem to get it to work, wondering if there would be a way to provide an recompiled version that might fix it

In windows enabling the "Beta: UTF-8" setting in locale settings will solve this
