Removing charset_flag setting on windows #6673

Removing CHARSET_FLAG setting on windows:
PR #5924 removed '/utf-8' since the compiler options are incompatible. We think the charset_flag should be added by the source itself, not vcpkg.

Known affect:
pango and gtk failed on Non-English environment, PR #6671 has fixed it.

The problem with not specifying any flags is that the charset becomes dependent on the host system -- and most sources do not pass a flag.

Therefore, it is probably best for us to always pass /utf-8 except in the one or two cases where the source is incompatible. I'm not sure what the optimal way to do this is.
