smcposix: pass unicode as first argument to array.array
This is an instance where we can safely convert the first argument, rest are
the cases except one where we are using 'c' which is not there in Python 3. So
that needs to be handled differently. This will help in making `hg help` run on
Python 3.
$ 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
