Use Unicode in translatable strings

Attached patch converts ASCII characters to Unicode, as recommended by <https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/typography.html>.

Since error messages are used in logs, on the console, I'm hesitant to just commit changes to complicate error messages further.

Are similar changes going into GLib? If so, then could you link to them ... if not, then why not?
Comment 2 Piotr Drąg 2016-10-06 16:12:29 UTC 
Similar patch to GLib has been accepted: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772221

I don't know of any problems related to UTF-8 and logging.

Thanks. Merged everything except for command-line only cases. In those cases
I would prefer to stick with the simpler ASCII characters for the C locale.
