[issue27469] Unicode filename gets crippled on Windows when drag and drop

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

Got some digging done today and it looks like we're probably best to write our own drop handler. It can probably be embedded into the py.exe launcher, which will keep all the registration in the one file.

At worst, we should switch to {86C86720-42A0-1069-A2E8-08002B30309D} (same as EXE files - converts long/Unicode paths to short filenames).
