[issue13153] IDLE 3.x on Windows exits when pasting non-BMP unicode

Serhiy, this looks like a great step in the right direction!

Tested on Win10 with PR GH-16545 (commit f4db0e7e00). Here is a copy/paste from an IDLE shell session:

>>> '\N{PERSONAL COMPUTER}'
'💻'
>>> print('💻')
SyntaxError: 'utf-8' codec can't encode characters in position 7-12: surrogates not allowed

Note that in the first output, the second and third chars in the string aren't visible in IDLE; i.e. what is actually displayed is 'ð»'.
