fsmonitor: handle unicode keys in tuples In Python 3, keys in the bset tuple are typically str, not bytes. PyBytes_AsString() would return NULL. But we weren't checking the return value and this would lead to a segfault. This commit makes the code type and Python version aware. The Python version specific code is to allow us to utilize a modern API for converting str -> char* without having to allocate an extra PyObject. FWIW I wanted to assume that keys were always str. However, there appear to be some bytes keys in some cases. I haven't debugged this further. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7210

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
