Summary: os.utime does not accept unicode filenames

Initial Comment:
Most file related functions on windows accept unicode
filenames.  os.utime does not.  This prevent the shutil
module from working with unicode filenames in some
situations.  A partial traceback from the SpamBayes
project is below:

  File "out1.pyz/shutil", line 170, in move
  File "out1.pyz/shutil", line 83, in copy2
  File "out1.pyz/shutil", line 58, in copystat
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode
characters in position 26-35: ordinal not in range(128)

The SpamBayes bug is at
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=835435&group_id=61702&atid=498103

Attaching a patch, including a patch to the test case.
 Also nominating as 2.3 bugfix candidate.
