run.py: fix codec type used to decode stdout, stderr

Codec 'ascii' only decodes English and can't understand other characters
and raise an UnicodeDecodeError. For example, consider running 'mkdir' on
an already existing directory, it would trigger:

err.strip().decode('ascii')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 31: ordinal not in range(128)

fix it by using 'UTF-8' as Codec for decoding, with the patch stderr
will be:

err.strip().decode('UTF-8')
'mkdir: cannot create directory ‘out’: File exists'
