pwclient: Force xmlrpc client to return unicode strings
On python 2, the reference implementation of the XML-RPC unmarshaller
decodes strings to unicode with the selected encoding (utf-8 by default)
but it tries to re-encode the unicode strings to ascii bytes before
returning the values. If it fails, it leaves the value as unicode.
See these links for more details:
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/xmlrpclib.py#l878
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/xmlrpclib.py#l180
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.6/Lib/xmlrpc/client.py#l753
Monkey-patch the internal xmlrpclib._stringify() function only on python
2 to force it to preserve unicode strings. This allows to have similar
behaviour in both python 2 and python 3.
