[Bug 1285496] [NEW] A test in src/mailman/model/docs/registration.rst fails if Python default encoding is UTF-8

[Mark Sapiro]

Public bug reported:

The Invalid email addresses section in the doctests in
src/mailman/model/docs/registration.rst attempts to register various
invalid email addresses and checks that they are rejected.

In particular, the test

    >>> registrar.register(mlist, '\xa0 at example.com')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    InvalidEmailAddressError: \xa0 at example.com

will fail if python's sys.getdefaultencoding() returns 'UTF-8' because
the invalid address is reported with the UTF-8 encoding of nonbreaking
space rather than \xa0.
