Summary: 661913: inconsistent error messages between string an unicod

Initial Comment:
'a'.index('b'):   substring not found in index
u'a'.index('b'): substring not found     (bah!)

same thing follows for rindex.

changed unicodeobject.c to return same error message as
what string returns.

Hmm... I think the patch should be in the
opposite direction - leaving unicode message
as is and fix stringobject.c to make the
message the same as unicode. I've scanned
all the exception messages in string methods
and (r)index() is the only method which contains
method name in its exception message. For example,

>>> 'a'.split('')
ValueError: empty separator
