600268506,MDU6SXNzdWU2MDAyNjg1MDY=,3974,load_dataset fails when filename is unicode,12728107,closed,0,,,4,2020-04-15T12:42:49Z,2022-05-06T08:13:04Z,2022-05-06T08:13:04Z,NONE,,,,"It seems like xarray does not handle unicode file names. The error is present even if the unicode characters appear in the parent path.


#### MCVE Code Sample

```python
import xarray as xr
import os
xr.Dataset().to_netcdf('caesar.nc')
os.rename('caesar.nc', 'cæsar.nc')
try:
    xr.load_dataset('cæsar.nc')
    print('Success')
except FileNotFoundError:
    print('File not found')
```

#### Expected Output
'Success'

#### Actual Output
'File not found'

#### Problem Description
xarray does not recognize file names with unicode letters

I have a project build on xarray that now fails on travis. It only fails on python 3.7. Have no idea why.

Minimal sample travis.yml that still fails:

--------------------
language: python
python:
- ""3.7""

install:
  - python --version
  - pip --version
  - pip install --upgrade setuptools numpy
  - pip install xarray
  - pip list

script:
  - python -c ""import xarray""
-----------------------------
