[issue5119] wide character parameter handling in ctypes

[Jason R. Coombs]

Jason R. Coombs <jaraco at jaraco.com> added the comment:

I've confirmed that my original assumption was quite false, and that
even if the parameters are the correct width, WNetAddConnection2W
behaves differently in 64-bit windows versus 32-bit windows, so it made
a bad test case.

So I've changed the title of this issue, because I still would like to
know if it is proper for ctypes to accept a narrow string but treat it
as a wide string without converting it.
