libgimpbase: fix #7383 GIMP loses exif data when a folder has Hebrew letters

Jacob Boerema requested to merge wip/wormnest/metadata-save into master

Using a MR to make a Windows installer. I hope this can be tested to see if it also fixes issue #7308 (closed).

On Windows when exporting an image saving the exif and other metadata fails if the path or filename includes non ASCII characters. Reason is that gexiv2 changed to using utf-8.

In the past we had to convert the filename to current locale on Windows, but since it now also expects utf-8 there, just remove the special handling of filename there.
