ui: avoid needless casting to a str

In many cases, we don't need to cast to a str because the object will
be cast when it is eventually written.

As part of testing this, I added some code to raise exceptions when a
non-str was passed in and wasn't able to trigger it. i.e. we're already
passing str into this function everywhere, so the casting isn't
necessary.

Mercurial

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
