If libcurl is built with Unicode support for Windows then it is assumed the filename string is Unicode in UTF-8 encoding and it is converted to UTF-16 to be passed to the wide character version of the respective function (eg wstat). However the filename string may actually be in the local encoding so, even if it successfully converted to UTF-16, if it could not be stat/accessed then try again using the local code page version of the function (eg wstat fails try stat). We already do this with fopen (ie wfopen fails try fopen), so I think it makes sense to extend it to stat and access functions. Closes #xxxx
