Bug 17962 – dirEntries now truncates Unicode file names

Thanks to https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/5758 (which I _think_ is just on master and didn't make it into 2.077), std.file.dirEntries can no longer handle Unicode file names. It now incorrectly combines countUntil with slicing a string, and Unicode names get truncated. For instance, if you do something like foreach(de; dirEntries("foo", SpanMode.shallow)) { if(de.isDir) { } } and the directory foo contains a file name with Unicode characters, then isDir will throw a FileException, because de.name does not actually exist (since the file's name was truncated).

Heh. I predicted bugs like this would eventually happen years ago during the big autodecoding debates. Auto-decoding must die.
