Non-ASCII environment variables aren't useful because no coding
conversion is done on them.  I guess the environment should be kept
encoded, and setenv and getenv should be changed to convert through
`locale-coding-system'.

It seems to me that elements of process-environment should
be decoded by locale-coding-system because
process-environment is exposed to Emacs Lisp, and there are
codes that directly manipulate that variable.
