MAINT-8087: Use env vars from VMP for AppData\Roaming and Local.
On Windows, when logged in with a non-ASCII username, every one of the three documented APIs -- SHGetSpecialFolderPath(), SHGetFolderPath() and SHGetKnownFolderPath() -- fails to retrieve any pathname at all. We cannot account for the fact that the oldest of these continues to work with the release viewer and within a Python script (though not, curiously, from a Python interactive session). With a non-ASCII username, they consistently fail when called from an Alex Ivy viewer build: "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." Empirically, with a non-ASCII username, the preset APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA environment variables are also useless, e.g. c:\Users\??????\AppData\Roaming where those are, yup, actual question marks. Empirically, the VMP is able to successfully call SHGetFolderPath() to retrieve both AppData\Roaming and AppData\Local. Therefore, we make the VMP set the APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA environment variables to the UTF-8 encoded correct pathnames. Instead of calling SHGetSomethingFolderPath() at all, make LLDir_Win32 retrieve those environment variables. Make LLFile::mkdir() treat "directory already exists" as a success case. Every single call fell into one of two categories: either it didn't check success at all, or it tested specially to exempt errno == EEXIST. Migrate that test into mkdir(); eliminate it from call sites. Make LLDir::append() and add() convenience functions accept variadic arguments. Replace add(add()...) constructs, as well as clumsy concatenations of directory names and getDirDelimiter(), with simple variadic add() calls.
