[issue5425] 2to3 wrong for types.StringTypes

[Hagen Fürstenau]

Hagen Fürstenau <hfuerstenau at gmx.net> added the comment:

The automatic conversion can't be perfect in all cases, but I think my
second suggestion is more in line with the other transformations done by
2to3 (string literals, "str", "basestring" etc.).

I propose applying the second patch, but don't care enough to argue for
it much more if it's rejected.
