run-tests: fix Python 3 incompatibilities

At one point run-tests.py and test-run-tests.t worked and passed
under Python 3.5. Various changes to run-tests.py over the past
several months appear to have broken Python 3.5 compatibility.

This patch implements various fixes (all related to str/bytes type
coercion) to make run-tests.py and test-run-tests.t mostly work
again. There are still a few failures in test-run-tests.t due to
issues importing mercurial.* modules. But at least run-tests.py
seems to work under 3.5 again.

  $ hg init

  $ echo 123 > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m "first" a

  $ mkdir sub
  $ echo 321 > sub/b
  $ hg add sub/b
  $ hg commit -m "second" sub/b

  $ cat sub/b
  321

  $ hg co 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ cat sub/b 2>/dev/null || echo "sub/b not present"
  sub/b not present

  $ test -d sub || echo "sub not present"
  sub not present
