IDN domains causes error with Gears

Description

International Domain Names causes problems with the gears setup. According to the Google Gears docs, the name must consist of visible ASCII characters only (​http://code.google.com/intl/nb/apis/gears/api_localserver.html#ManagedResourceStore). International Domain Names can contain non-ASCII characters, and the storeName will be illegal. The regular expression filtering the illegal characters in the "storeName" function in wp-gears.js need to handle this scenario. Still, even when this is fixed, there is an issue in Gears itself that prevents using the Gears functionality under IDN domains (​http://code.google.com/p/gears/issues/detail?id=857)

I guess the best would be to use the encoded domain name in the storeName.
