[issue19159] 2to3 incorrectly converts two parameter unicode() constructor to str()

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

This is not a bug, str accepts the encoding argument in Python 3. And in contrast to the decode method it works with arbitrary byte-like objects (i.e. array.array).
