lfs: use str for the open() mode when opening a blob for py3 The other fix for this was to leave the mode as bytes, and import `pycompat.open()` like a bunch of other modules do. But I think it's confusing to still use bytes at the python boundary, and obviously error prone. Grepping for ` open\(.+, ['"][a-z]+['"]\)` and ` open\(.+, b['"][a-z]+['"]\)` outside of `tests`, there are 51 and 87 uses respectively, so it's not like this is a rare direct usage.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
