Message files encoding

Hi all,

The LocalString*.properties files are ASCII encoded which renders the
modification of the non-english messages rather inconvenient.
Contributors either need a specialized resource editor or go through a
native2ascii roundtrip.

How do feel about converting the message files to UTF-8 to facilitate
the modifications and transform them with native2ascii at build time?
