Encode available device names to UTF-8

Resolves this error when attempting to run bin/mkchromecast.

Traceback (most recent call last):

For context, I am using the library on a Raspberry Pi 4 with the following system specifiations

<username>@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /proc/version
Linux version 6.1.21-v8+ (dom@buildbot) (aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc-8 (Ubuntu/Linaro 8.4.0-3ubuntu1) 8.4.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.34) #1642 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr  3 17:24:16 BST 2023

This solution works for me. However, I am not a Python developer, so please review this if there would be a better way to resolve this long term.

Hi, Samuel. Could you share the output of these diagnostic commands? (I'm also including the output on my machine, just to have context in the bug)

$python --version
bash: python: command not found

$python3 --version
Python 3.11.9

$env | grep LANG
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Lastly, if you're willing to share the name of your Chromecast, that would be really helpful (but I understand that it can be personal, so np if you don't want to share it)

I would like to be able to reproduce the issue you ran into, because I'm not entirely sure how it would manifest (I have a Chromecast with an emoji in the name and that works fine locally)

Hi @xsdg, more than happy to share, and no worries happy to provide the name of the troublesome device.

<username>@raspberrypi:~/mkchromecast $ python3 --version

<username>@raspberrypi:~/mkchromecast $ env | grep LANG

The name of the device is Sam’s Room clock
