[nowide] Cannot end input using ^Z/^D on Windows

I try to get input via boost::nowide::cin. However, I cannot not end the stream with ^Z/^D.
It seems that nowide::details::console_input_buffer::read recognizes ^Z/^D as a regular character.
This would be a consequence of opening the stream in binary mode rather than text mode. (Text mode will only recognise ^Z.) I'm not sufficiently familiar with nowide to tell you whether this is something you can fix in the application or whether it will require a fix to nowide, or if this is intentional for some reason.
What ReadConsoleW should return in such a case?.. I hadn't tested the "EOF" feature of the console. Can you put some debug code to iostream.cpp:171 to see what ReadConsoleW returns?
