Amiga programs use Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) encoding for text output, but modern terminals typically expect UTF-8. Without conversion, extended characters (codes 128-255) display incorrectly. Add Latin1ToUtf8Converter class and use it in both Terminal and FileHandle write paths when the system stdout uses UTF-8 encoding. Also fix write() return value to report the original byte count rather than the converted byte count, as callers expect the number of Amiga bytes written.
