Synaptic cannot display Chinese description correctly

[Qishuai Liu]

If the package description contains Chinese characters, it cannot be displayed in the Description textview correctly.
This is because g_utf8_strlen() returns the character count, but gtk_text_buffer_insert() requires byte count.

Here is the patch:
