Full unicode support for OSD

Please add support for full Unicode fonts in OSD. I use latin fonts but i have many asian videos and when their names contain far-eastern fonts you can see squares in the the OSD... I tired with Dejavu Sans, Ubuntu and Arial fonts too... I use Arch linux and i compiled VLC from git, but it's an old bug.

added Component::Subtitles Platform::GNU/Linux Severity::normal Type::bug Version::master git labels

changed milestone to %Bugs paradize

Just pick a Unicode font in preferences with fontconfig.

Ok... in this case please tell me ONE font which will work... because Arial has full unicode support and it works neither... thank you
