Description
On Windows, running `ley up` results in the `�` character being displayed for non-ASCII characters:

To reproduce:
1. In the `postgresql.conf` configuration file, change the value of `lc_messages` to `Russian_Ukraine.1251`
2. Create a connection configuration error (such as wrong database username or password)
3. Run `ley up`

Research direction
Start at the `ley up` command and follow how connection configuration errors are captured and displayed. Reproduce the issue on Windows with PostgreSQL `lc_messages` set to `Russian_Ukraine.1251`; done means non-ASCII error messages display correctly instead of as `�`.
