The win32_convert_ part seems a bit verbose, and might
end up a bit silly if we ever end up implementing
then function also for some other OS or switch to
requiring libiconv and making them non-Windows specific.
But take that just as an idle comment, you write the code,
you get to decide the naming, at least in this case :)

I would probably just put it in stream/stream.c/h.
Just leaving it in stream_file.c and exporting it
would be kind of ok as well, especially if it reduces
the size of the diff.
But neither is a particularly suitable place,
so if you prefer you can create a new file.
I am mostly too lazy for all the boilerplate like
license headers, inclusion guards etc. that you
need to write in that case.
