Terminal failes to start with non-ASCII cwd

[morags]

Calling pty.startProcess() with a cwd that has non-ASCII characters (eg. Hebrew) raises the following error:
Unable to start terminal process. Win32 error code: 267. The error code suggests an invalid directory name.

// cwd = E:\
Cannot find module '..\build\Release\pty.node'

// cwd = E:\מסמכים\תוכנות\Eclipse\Coursework
Cannot find module '..\build\Release\pty.node'
Unable to start terminal process. Win32 error code: 267 Error: Unable to start terminal process. Win32 error code: 267

This is fixed in my fork node-pty thanks to @the-ress.
