Description: Fix encoding errors on Windows libvirt guests
On Windows guests the default encoding will be set to whatever
default legacy encoding, not utf-8. This issue isn't apparent on English locale
Windows guests, as there the encodings (ISO-8859-1, utf-8) happen to coincide.
However, on e.g. German Windows guests this will cause an encoding error when
reading any output from there.
This patch ensures that the proper encoding is set on every command.
