Avoid putting the process in a zombie state when encountering non-unicode filenames.
This patch matches the behavior of the python3 branch on python2:
If a file's name is not a valid string in the filesystem's character encoding, then it is processed with a filename string where the invalid characters are encoded as unicode surrogate pairs.
This matches the behavior of os.fsdecode which is used on python 3
Fixes #811
