Additional information
- May be similar to fs.rmSync('速') crash without throw #56049, although it's an issue for a different method and doesn't mention the Shift-JIS requirement.

requirein the user's case, the aforementioned issue also links a reproducible example repository, although not a minimal one for testing purposes, the issue has been reproduced with a simplerequirein REPL as well. - The same code works fine:
- If the filesystem isn't Shift-JIS (UNIX, non-Japanese Windows).
- ASCII names are used instead.
