No support has been added for files that have unicode filenames. This should already be functional on MacOS and Linux since Jatta uses utf-8 internally (as do they) but it hasn't been tested. No support for Unicode filenames on Windows has been implemented at all.

We will need to check that Assimp and other libraries support Unicode file names (especially on Windows which does not use utf-8). All libraries regarding files should have ways of loading files from memory if necessary, meaning the file loading should be handled by the file utilities instead.

The file utility is utf8 compliant aside from FindFiles and FindFolders (which are both currently commented out). Those need to be reworked anyway for a mingw and visual studio friendly solution. The libraries libpng, libjpeg, freetype, and assimp need to be checked for unicode support on windows.
