tests: fixed test too dependent on actual exception wording

On one of the machines I use to run the tests prior to submission,
the default Python is 2.7.5, with the following wording:

  must be encoded string without NULL bytes, not str

This third form (and possible future ones) are motivation to
use a wider catching regexp.

Create a repo, set the username to something more than 255 bytes, then run hg amend on it.

  $ unset HGUSER
  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
  > [ui]
  > username = aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa <[e-mail]>
  > [extensions]
  > amend =
  > [experimental]
  > evolution.createmarkers=True
  > evolution.exchange=True
  > EOF
  $ hg init tmpa
  $ cd tmpa
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg add
  adding a
  $ hg commit -m "Initial commit"
  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg amend 2>&1 | egrep -v '^(\*\*|  )'
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
