revert fix for [#31555] Username with special chars in Windows 7

this breaks and causes bug: [#32720], where sys.stdout becomes invalid and print() does nothing.

On investigation - python is not getting the environment variable from blender (aparently because its a DLL?) so this should be resolved rather then overwriting sys.stdout.
