[export] Export widget breaks if Python columns label contain special chars

[Nicolas Bessi - Camptocamp]

If you try to export export a child column in export all data mode if in Python code the label contains special chars it breaks.
The fix is quite simple and works for both versions:

Seems to me the traceback posted by Amit and the error reported by Nicolas are different: Nicolas's patch fixes line ~1406 (concatenation of field['string'] to parent_name) but Amit's error occurs at line ~1392 (sorting of fields based on unlocalized string ordering — which isn't correct anyway).

Nicolas, could you clarify the error you get and how the "child column [with] the label contain[ing] special chars" is defined? Also if it's a sub-level (e.g. an o2m field) or a toplevel field?
