[issue31307] ConfigParser.read silently fails if filenames argument is a byte string

[Łukasz Langa]

Łukasz Langa added the comment:

Good catch. Supporting bytes passed as a path is a reasonable request since the builtin `open()` supports this, too. Go ahead and create a pull request! We only need to modify line 690 to also list `bytes`.
