[dev] dmenu and unicode

As far as I can tell dmenu doesn't work with unicode input.

To see an example, check this out:

    perl -E'binmode(STDOUT, ":encoding(UTF-8)"); say "\N{HEAVY BLACK HEART}"'

vs
    perl -E'binmode(STDOUT, ":encoding(UTF-8)"); say "\N{HEAVY BLACK HEART}"' | dmenu

Anyone have tips on making this work? Thanks!
