util: prefer "bytesio" to "stringio"

The io.BytesIO and io.StringIO types enforce the type of
data being operated on. On Python 2, we use cStringIO.StringIO(),
which is lax about mixing types. On Python 3, we actually use
io.BytesIO. Ideally, we'd use io.BytesIO on Python 2. But I believe
its performance is poor compared to cString.StringIO().

Anyway, we canonically define our pycompat type as "stringio."
That name is misleading, especially on Python 3.

This commit renames the canonical symbols to "bytesio."
"stringio" is preserved as an alias for API compatibility. There
are a lot of callers in the repo and I hesitate to take away the
old name. I also don't feel like changing everything at this time.
But at least new callers can use a "proper" name.

Create 2 heads containing the same file, once as
a file, once as a link. Bundle was generated with:

# hg init t
# cd t
# echo a > a
# hg ci -qAm t0 -d '0 0'
# echo l > l
# hg ci -qAm t1 -d '1 0'
# hg up -C 0
# ln -s a l
# hg ci -qAm t2 -d '2 0'
# echo l2 > l2
# hg ci -qAm t3 -d '3 0'

  $ hg init t
  $ cd t
  $ hg -q pull "$TESTDIR/bundles/test-merge-symlinks.hg"
  $ hg up -C 3
  3 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

Merge them and display *_ISLINK vars
merge heads

  $ hg merge --tool="$PYTHON ../echo.py"
