[REQUIRED] Please describe the issue here:

generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe fails when executed by a user whose Windows user folder contains non-ASCII characters.

Example:

C:\Users\漢字太郎>c:\Users\Public\unityproject\Assets\Firebase\Editor\generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe --help
Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest could not be extracted!

For the exact same project, when the user folder only contains ASCII characters the execution is successful.

Example:

C:\Users\taro>c:\Users\Public\unityproject\Assets\Firebase\Editor\generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe --help
usage: generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe [-h] [-i FILE] [-o FILE] [-p P] [-l] [-f] [--plist]

Converts a Firebase app/google-services.json into res/values/googleservices.xml similar to the Gradle plugin, or converts a Firebase GoogleService-Info.plist into a
google-services-desktop.json suitible for use on desktop apps.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  -i FILE     Override input file name
  -o FILE     Override destination file name
  -p P        Package ID to select within the set of packages in the input file. If this is not specified, the first package in the input file is selected.
  -l          List all package IDs referenced by the input file. If this is specified, the output file is not created.
  -f          Print project fields from the input file in the form 'name=value\n' for each field. If this is specified, the output is not created.
  --plist     Specifies a plist file to convert to a JSON configuration file. If this is enabled, the script will expect a .plist file as input, which it will convert
              into google-services-desktop.json file. The output file is *not* suitable for use with Firebase on Android.

Using pyinstaller I was able to generate an .exe file from generate_xml_from_google_services_json.py that could be successfully executed by non-ASCII users. However, the size of the .exe increased from 4.9MB to 6.7MB.

Steps to create:

• Python Releases for Windows 3.9.5(amd64)
• pip install pyinstaller
• Copy Assets/Firebase/Editor/generate_xml_from_google_services_json.py into any folder
• pyinstaller generate_xml_from_google_services_json.py --onefile

Would it be possible to replace generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe with a version that can be executed by non-ASCII users as well?
