Describe the bug

Hello,
The itch plugin doesn't seem able to import every game I own in my library.

Here is an example: https://dereel.itch.io/yahu

Is also shown as "owned" in the official Itch client:

But the game is not in my library. Neither "Yahú" nor "Yahu" yields a result.

Maybe the many special characters are a problem?

I also found 2 other games that have the exact same problem:

https://dereel.itch.io/la-machine-a-rever ["La Machine à Rêver" - has also special characters]
https://dereel.itch.io/the-dream-machine [English version of "La Machine à Rêver"]

May be related: Some are imported, but with incorrect special characters:

Correct should be Marche Frontières - https://dereel.itch.io/marche-frontieres

Can't reproduce. "La Machine à Rêver" imported for me fine (after claiming it to my library) and "Marche Frontières" has correct name encoding:

I'm going to close this for now, since I'm guessing this is because it's running in a VM in VirtualBox. If I can ever confirm it occurs on real hardware I will re-open this issue.
