Avatars are not displayed when user name contains UTF8 characters

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create an image file with name "Árvíztűrő Tükörfúrógép.jpg" in the 
avatars directory 
2. run gource with --output-custom-log commit.log
3. replace a user name in the custom.log file with "Árvíztűrő 
Tükörfúrógép"
4. run gource with --user-image-dir avatars

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The default user image is displayed instead of the custom picture.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 7 64 bit english version, system locale: hungarian, gource version: 0.38

Please provide any additional information below.
When I rename the image file to asdf.jpg, and replace the user name to asdf, 
the custom picture is displayed correctly.

I think I've just fixed the issue reported in the first post. It now works in 
the example case and the ones I've tried.

Windows filenames are apparently UTF-16 and need to be converted to UTF-8 so 
the names will match the user names on the log entries.

Have not encountered the issue in the second post. Would need more details to 
look into that. It's failing to load the image, which could also mean that the 
png couldn't be read. Does it work if the image is renamed to not contain any 
unicode characters?

Cheers

Andrew
