**Description: **
Zip files created on windows that contain files and paths with unicode characters do not extract correctly with the 7zz executable available for linux.

Currently the solution is to use wine to use 7z.exe which is not always acceptable for all deployments.

Please add support for the -mcp switch to 7zz so that code pages can be specified during extraction.
