Summary: bad message for non-string getattr

Initial Comment:
object.__getattribute__(obj, 1) prints a bizarre error
message, because the error message code assumes the
name argument is always a string.

I decided to fix this by insisting in
PyObject_Generic{Gete,Set}Attr() that the attribute name be
a string (or ASCII-fiable Unicode), like the other
getattr/setattr functions.
