Title: fix: allow unicode paths in image source

I am getting this error when trying to use image inside a unicode folder

File "/home/fruitbat/Documents/kivy/kivy/kivy/core/image/__init__.py", line 202, in populate
self._nocache, uid)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 51: ordinal not in range(128)

This PR seems to correct this error. Example code to demo issue here:
