first part of bytes conversion

Convert the request body data from str to bytes. This replaces all
StringIOs with BytesIOs (removing backwards one more backwards
compatibility). Also all character sequences involved in request bodies
get a b"" prefix. The StaticContent application takes bytes instead of
str (no difference for py2x). The GzipWSGIFilter needs a fixed as a
truncate of a BytesIO does not rewind the stream position.
