PATCH 1/1 SDL: Fix dead keys

Hello,

On a lot of keyboards (e.g. french, finnish, ...), there are dead keys, i.e. they don't output text alone. Qemu's sdl.c always enable unicode mode, so that these keys don't actually produce a keycode, and the result is that these keys don't work at all in the guest. The attached patch fixes that by enabling/disabling unicode mode as needed.
