windows: Remove old codepage ABI compat code

(and as a side effect make the gi bindings API compatible with
other platforms)

The compat code was added in
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gdk-pixbuf/commit/?id=141506eb46927eb10b74bc24727488bdbde1c7d4
to allow switching to utf-8 paths while keeping binary compatibility and to
make new programs link against the "_utf8" variants.

This results in two problems for gi bindings:
(1) g-ir-scanner can't find the annotations due to the renames and thus
    gdk_pixbuf_savev() can't be used in bindings (the other functions happen to
    work with default annotations)
(2) g-ir-scanner will write the renamed functions in the gir/typelib with
    the "_utf8" suffix, making the resulting bindings API incompatible with other
    platforms.

Some months ago
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gdk-pixbuf/commit/?id=6855a2d806b2305938abc04b0cb4fa383f8ccd3b
got rid of symbol files, breaking ABI and old binaries.

This patch removes the, now unused, codepage code and removes the renames so that
new code links against the real functions again. To not break recent binaries
add new functions with the _utf8 suffix which just call the main functions.
Annotations are copied as well to not break bindings API.

A similar change in glib was commited some years ago
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/?id=8c42a663f8182f8281c083390aa761e8e9badc63
