convert: fix marshalling in P4 convert extension to use a binary stream

The Perforce convert extension uses the p4 -G command line option and
marshal.load to obtain information about the history of a Perforce depot.

The method marshal.load must be provided with a binary stream (mode='rb') in
order to function reliably. Certain changelist descriptions or other elements
in a depot history could trigger a premature EOFError, causing the conversion
process to fail.

This may resolve the issue discussed in the following thread:

    u.warn('Usage:\n%s\n' % help)
    sys.exit(-1)

convert.convert(u, src, dest, revmapfile, **opts)
