I think Nick is on board with bytes.fromint() and no bchr(), and my
sense of the sentiment here is that this would be an acceptable

I haven't been completely keeping up with the entire thread, so
apologies if this has already been covered. I assume that the idea is
that bytes.fromint should return a single byte, equivalent to chr()
returning a single character.
To me, it sounds like should be the opposite of int.from_bytes.
int.from_bytes(b'Hello world', 'little')
121404708502361365413651784
bytes.from_int(121404708502361365413651784, 'little')
# should return b'Hello world'
