Summary: Convert str to bytes in io.BytesIO.__init__

Initial Comment:
This patch allows a str object to be used as the initial value of io.BytesIO:

  >>> x = io.BytesIO('1234')
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    File "/home/alex/src/python.org/py3k/Lib/io.py", line 592, in __init__
      buffer += initial_bytes
  TypeError: can't concat bytes to str
