[midPoint] Import User Task failure

[Jason Everling]

Hah! Someone else came across this error! I had the same issue with the
diacritics and AD, see this thread,
http://lists.evolveum.com/pipermail/midpoint/2015-November/001489.html

I had to manually go into the database and modify certain items for that
object, removing the invalid character in order to delete the shadow from
gui
