Josh Cooper commented on Bug FACT-3109

The error occurs when trying to read the "Friendly Name" for the interface. In Facter 3.x we used to do

net_interface.name = boost::nowide::narrow(pCurAddr->FriendlyName);

The boost libraries automatically convert the wide string friendly name to UTF-8 and most importantly they https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/develop/libs/nowide/doc/html/index.html 

If there are non-UTF-8 characters in the passed string, the conversion will replace them by a replacement character (default: U+FFFD) similar to what the NT kernel does.

Since the "friendly name" is user editable, it's possible for the data to be incorrectly encoded (usually it's encoded based on the current code page instead of UTF-16LE). We should ensure we replace invalid chars when reading the friendly name.

1. Update facter's read_wide_string_without_length method to accept an optional argument to replace invalid chars. If set, call:

str.encode(Encoding::UTF_8, str.encoding, replace: invalid)

2. Update networking.rb to pass the optional argument

We already do something like this in puppet when reading garbage from the registry. See https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/1b8c8a13b9e87ad12cf8452aade7c2ead0e34edc/lib/puppet/ffi/windows/api_types.rb#L53

Re: Failed to get networking information: "\xE5" to UTF-8 in conversion from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8 to UTF-16LE

Additional information if it helps along the way... The customer I'm with currently has codepage `437` on Windows 2012R2, 2016 and 2019. Mix of IPv6 enabled/disabled. So, nothing to zero in on per se.

What we're seeing here is AIO puppet-agent `v7.0.0` – facter output and puppet runs seem to work but have unexpected values in networking hash:
