Py3-only: Change str encoding from Python2 to only support Python3

Note by Bernhard: As per the agreement with Andrew in #18, we shall
keep master py2-compatible and py3-only changes go to a py3 branch:

Reference:
#18 (comment)

Therefore, I'll squash this commit with the next commit for fixing
it up keep master py2-compatible, at least until all py3 checks and
a complete manual test was done by QA.

Original commit message by Qin Zhang （张琴）:
Remove the use of 'encode' as it's used to turn a Unicode string into a regular string in Python2

Final Remarks by Bernhard, for completeleness:
- This commit also adds conversion from curses input bytes to str.
- Rebased to apply on the current master branch.
