Re: [PATCH v2 04/14] git-p4: encode/decode communication with p4 for python3

Yang Zhao [off-list ref] writes:

The marshalled dict in the response given on STDOUT by p4 uses `str` for
keys and string values. When run using python3, these values are
deserialized as `bytes`, leading to a whole host of problems as the rest
of the code assumes `str` is used throughout.

This patch changes the deserialization behaviour such that, as much as
possible, text output from p4 is decoded to native unicode strings.
Exceptions are made for the field `data` as it is usually arbitrary
binary data. `depotFile[0-9]*`, `path`, and `clientFile` are also exempt
as they contain path strings not encoded with UTF-8, and must survive
survive round-trip back to p4.

Doubled "survive"; will drop one of them while queuing.
