Inconsistent character encoding from windows output

Looking at this issue in the JupyterLab repo, we wanted to migrate it here since it's not related to the JupyterLab frontend: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/1239

Original report:

---

trying "!dir" in Jupyterlab Notebook, hoping for the best as there may be some "utf-8" standardization thanks to PEP 528 / 529, I see no effect: still badly decoded characters.

I have difficulties to guess from bugs.python.org if something can be done in Jupyterlab (or qtconsole) case: https://bugs.python.org/issue28675

Maybe I don't take the right example to see the PEP 528 / 529 effects.


Start by reading the migrated JupyterLab issue 1239 and the referenced Python issue 28675, then reproduce `!dir` in a JupyterLab Notebook on Windows. Done means that characters from Windows command output are decoded correctly rather than appearing corrupted.
