For IMP 6.1.1, add code that catches non-ASCII characters and throws an error. This is better than a user thinking the flag was successfully created. I am very happy with the solution, thanks for the commit.

The solution is going to be suboptimal: we need to base64 encode the name of the flag in the IMAP flag name (prefixed by an IMP-specific header). Saving globally in the preferences - something we used to do - is no longer done due to issues recovering when the preferences may be lost. The downside of this approach is that the IMAP flags are unusable in any other IMAP client, since the text of the flag itself will be garbage and other clients will not know how to translate the text into a useful label.

Of course, because non-ASCII characters are not allowed in IMAP keywords/flags (RFC 3501). We should probably throw an error on this to inform the user that these characters are not allowed.

Can create marker (Prüfen) and mark messages with the german umlaute like äüö, but after logout and login again the message lost the marker. After press F5 for browser reload the message lost the marker immediately, it looks as if it was never saved.
