[New-bugs-announce] [issue1076] py3 patch: full Unicode version for winreg module

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc:

With this patch, the winreg module is now completely unicode: it only
uses Windows wide-char API functions, and all strings (keys, subkeys,
values) are passed untranslated. str8 is banned, and byte objects are
only allowed for raw binary data.

Note: It seems a good approach to use the wide-char Windows API whenever
possible. They fit very well with PyUnicode strings, and simplify the
code...
