Mod directories with non-ASCII names aren't displayed correctly

Hello @lethal-guitar 👋

How are you doing. Would like to give this a shot. How do we reproduce this this and also never thought of non-ASCII names for files and directories until seeing this.

Hi @naftalimurgor, doing alright, thanks! Happy to hear you're interested in tackling this 🙂

To reproduce:

• Download one of the mods from the list
• Place it into <Game data dir>/mods/<name of mod>
• Rename the directory to contain some non-ASCII characters, e.g. Täßtîng 東京
• Now, when you launch the game and open the mod manager in the options menu, the non-ASCII characters will be displayed as ???? in the UI.

This happens due to the built-in font coming with the Dear ImGui library not having Unicode glyphs. There should be a fair bit of information on how to add Unicode support on the Dear ImGui wiki.
