safehasattr: pass attribute name as string instead of bytes

This is a step toward replacing `util.safehasattr` usage with plain `hasattr`.
The builtin function behave poorly in Python2 but this was fixed in Python3.

These change are done one by one as they tend to have a small odd to trigger
puzzling breackage.

This directory is meant to cache artifacts useful for tests (such as bundle).

Those artifacts need to be cached because they are slow to regenerate on each
test but too large to be tracked within the repository. They are not expected
to change between each run and can be cached.

The `./scripts/` contains code to generate the artifact while the `cache`
directory contains resulting artifact.
