Getting the encoding tests running on Windows

4 patches for repository darcs-unstable at darcs.net:screened:

Mon Dec 31 22:43:32 GMT 2012  Ganesh Sittampalam <ganesh at earth.li>
  * windows test fix: replace shell script with a Haskell program

Mon Dec 31 22:46:00 GMT 2012  Ganesh Sittampalam <ganesh at earth.li>
  * improve diagnostics when utf8 test fails

Tue Jan  1 12:02:46 GMT 2013  Ganesh Sittampalam <ganesh at earth.li>
  * unsetting DARCS_TEST_PREFS_DIR in utf8 test doesn't seem to be necessary
  
  It was causing problems on Windows because getAppUserDataDirectory
  still returns the normal user directory.
  
  It also means that the repository type choice isn't picked up.

  * We can use chcp to switch encodings on Windows
  This means that the tests that require different encodings can run.
