Debugger Does Not Handle Unicode/UTF-8 Characters Properly

Comienza reproduciendo el script de ejemplo con F5 y F8 en las versiones de Windows y PowerShell afectadas; después, inspecciona cómo el depurador gestiona la codificación del script o de la salida y revisa logs.zip. Se considerará terminado cuando la sigma griega siga siendo correcta al iniciar mediante F5 en las configuraciones afectadas, mientras que el comportamiento de F8 siga siendo correcto.

Issue Description

I've experienced an issue with the way the debugger handles non-ascii characters. If I create a script with a Unicode/UTF-8 character in, for example the sigma symbol "∑", when I press F5 to run the script through the debugger it translates the symbol like this, "∑". If I highlight the text and run it using F8, it displays the characters correctly.

I've tested this on 3 different machines, one Windows Server 2012 R2, which I included the system details for here. I also tested it on a Windows Server 2016 with the same versions of VS Code and PowerShell extensions and I saw the same results. However, I also tested on it Windows 10 1709, again with the same versions, and it did not have this issue. The only difference between the systems is the Windows 10 system listed the architecture as ia32 and the two servers are x64. Also the Windows 10 system is on PowerShell version 5.1.15063.1088 and the 2016 is on version 5.1.14393.2248.

Here is an example of the code I am running

$string = "Greek sigma symbol: ∑"
