win32_unicode.py: Do not work around issue2128 for PY3

I'm having trouble working with pydev debugger on Windows because its cmd arguments (--multiproc, --qt-support=auto, --client, --port, and --file) are included in GetCommandLineW results. That leads to superfluous arguments being passed to pywikibot which is sometimes forbidden.[1] The default sys.argv does not have this issue.

issue2128 does not exist in Python 3. So at least for Python 3 we don't need the workaround.
