Subject: [PATCH] Make pickle accept IO[str] instead of BinaryIO. (#980)

* Make pickle accept IO[str] instead of BinaryIO.

This makes the following code work:
pickle.Unpickler(cStringIO.StringIO())
(Which didn't work before because cStringIO.StringIO inherits "only"
 from IO[str], not BinaryIO)

* Use bytes instead of str.
