problem opening file with Chinese chars in path

[jswhit]

Reported in Unidata/netcdf4-python#997

Consider this test script:

import netCDF4, os
dirpath1 =\
b'\xe6\xb5\xb7\xe6\xb4\x8b\xe6\x8e\xa2\xe6\xb5\x8b\xe6\x8a\x80\xe6\x9c\xaf\xe4\xb8\x93\xe9\xa2\x98\xe5\xae\x9e\xe9\xaa\x8c'.decode('utf-8')
dirpath2 =\
b'\xe4\xb8\x93\xe9\xa2\x98\xe5\xae\x9e\xe9\xaa\x8c\xe5\x85\xab'.decode('utf-8')
dirpath = os.path.join(dirpath1,dirpath2)
os.makedirs(dirpath,exist_ok=True)
filename=os.path.join(dirpath,'V2019151040600.L2_SNPP_OC.nc')
print(filename)
nc = netCDF4.Dataset(filename,'w')
nc.filename = filename
nc.close()
nc = netCDF4.Dataset(filename)

The file is created, but a Permission denied error is raised when the file is read back in.
The file can be read via h5dump or h5py, but ncdump cannot see it (No such file or directory).

h5dump 海洋探测技术专题实验/专题实验八/V2019151040600.L2_SNPP_OC.nc works
ncdump 海洋探测技术专题实验/专题实验八/V2019151040600.L2_SNPP_OC.nc does not.

This issue came up once before (in esupport, I think). I do not recall the
resolution, so let me see if I can find it.

[DennisHeimbigner]

Cannot find it. Does anyone else recall the previous resolution?

[DennisHeimbigner]

Found the problem (or at least one of them).
The path handling code in NC_create and NC_open (dfile.c)
is improperly handling whitespace. Will have fix up shortly.

I am uploading a revised libdispatch/dfile.c
Can someone see if it fixes the problem for them?
dfile.zip

[jswhit]

Dennis - that does seem to fix it.

[DennisHeimbigner]

ok, I will submit the PR for it.
