New version, including the "unicode-glob" setting
in [71cd228b0e].

This version allows all characters in filenames that
are permissible on UNIX, except '\'. And those files
can be checked out using Cygwin and Windows as
well, using Cygwin's solution: In the file system
translate those characters to 'safe' characters in
the range U+F000 to U+F0FF (which should never
itself occur in valid fossil cards)

I cannot find any security-risks with this. The only
possible security risk I found is unrelated to this
change, and it is already fixed in [897dfa48b4]
(Thanks, Richard!)

Anyone who thinks this is a bad idea? Please, speak
up now, otherwise Richard might approve this!....
