tests: avoid implicit conversion of str to unicode On Python 2, str.encode('utf-8') implicitly converts the string to unicode and then back to str. Using _sys2bytes() ensures that opt is only encoded on Python 3, where opt is unicode. Although contrived, before this change, a UnicodeDecodeError could be triggered on Python 2 when passing non-ascii values to --extra-config-opt.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
