MythBrowser and special characters in URLs

Description

MythBrowser is unable to correctly open link from the MythNews RSS feed article if the link contains non-ascii characters. One example of this kind of feed is ​http://www.hs.fi/uutiset/rss/

Attached patch fixes the issue. I've verified that with the patch applied, URLs containing non-ascii characters still work through MythBookmarkManager -> MythBrowser.

However, there's another LoadPage() call in mythbrowser.cpp in slotAddTab() method. I'm not sure if this needs changing also or does it work correctly as is.
