[New-bugs-announce] [issue27474] Unify exception in _Py_bytes_contains for integers

[Xiang Zhang]

New submission from Xiang Zhang:

Now, `sys.maxsize+1 in b'foo'` raises "TypeError: 'int' does not support the buffer interface" which seems weird. In such case, I don't think there is any difference between sys.maxsize+1 and 256. So I suggest make it emits the same exceptions as `256 in b'foo'`, "ValueError: byte must be in range(0, 256)".
