[issue32498] urllib.parse.unquote raises incorrect errormessage when string parameter is bytes

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

If you read the traceback the message is "correct" for some definition of correct: the right hand side controls the type of the expression, so it is objecting to trying to look for the string '%' in a bytes object.

There are probably ways this could be improved, but I'm not sure it is worth it, since this is just a general behavior of the 'in' operator.
