[New-bugs-announce] [issue39359] zipfile: add missing "pwd: expected bytes, got str" exception message

[Daniel Hillier]

New submission from Daniel Hillier <daniel.hillier at gmail.com>:

Setting the ZipFile.pwd attribute directly skips the check to ensure the password is a bytes object and, if not, return a user friendly TypeError("pwd: expected bytes, got <type>") informing them of that.
