Replaces non-cp1252 characters (→ Δ ≥ ≠ λ α √ Γ) in strings that get
print()ed, logged, or shown in argparse --help with ASCII equivalents,
so emitting them never raises UnicodeEncodeError on a Windows cp1252
console or the rotating file log.
Scope: console/log/CLI-help emit paths in non-GUI code only.
Deliberately left untouched:
* Qt GUI widget glyphs (checkboxes, arrows, status icons) — Qt renders
Unicode fine and these are not a printing hazard.
* matplotlib superscripts in plot_outputs/format_helpers.py.
* DB parameter description= text in db_migration.py (written to the
Spine DB, rendered in the Qt editor, never printed).
* Comments and docstrings (never encoded to a console).
Updates test_lagrangian.py error-path matchers to the >=2 wording.
Also adds venv/ to .gitignore.
Supersedes PR #326 (irena-flextool/flextool), which was 132 commits
behind new-outputs and only covered three now-refactored spots.
