Description: bad work with cyrillic encoding

1. Wrong sorting order: not A,a,B,b, etc for cyrillic texts, but
A,B,...,a,b..
String functions do not work with cyrillic arguments, for example:
Latin:
Select lower('Tom')
lower
--------
tom
1 record(s) selected [Fetch MetaData: 31/ms] [Fetch Data: 0/ms]
Cyrillic:
Select lower('ÐлекÑ')
lower
--------
ÐлекÑ
1 record(s) selected [Fetch MetaData: 0/ms] [Fetch Data: 0/ms]
