Text Encoding for Filename is not uniform in wxMac-2.6.3

[Stefan Csomor]

Hi

we've had a difficult decision where to draw the line.

The current thinking is that any call that takes char* should get utf8
decomposed (ie use fn_str() et al by the caller), any call with wxString
param, should have the ui encoding. 

I've added conversions for utf8 composing / decomposing in CVS HEAD, so
this one should be better for testing. Once we've ironed out the
wrinkles, I'll backport if possible to 2.6.X

Best,

Stefan
