Restore old pgwin32_message_to_UTF16() behavior outside transactions. Commit 49c817eab78c6f0ce8c3bf46766b73d6cf3190b7 replaced with a hard error the dubious pg_do_encoding_conversion() behavior when outside a transaction. Reintroduce the historic soft failure locally within pgwin32_message_to_UTF16(). This fixes errors when writing messages in less-common encodings to the Windows event log or console. Back-patch to 9.4, where the aforementioned commit first appeared. Per bug #13427 from Dmitri Bourlatchkov.
