[issue10481] subprocess PIPEs are byte streams

[Sam Kimbrel]

Sam Kimbrel added the comment:

I've created a patch that updates the docs to reflect the behavior of communicate() and check_output(), which is that both the "input" argument and stdin/stdout/stderr PIPEs will convert to and from strings when self.univeral_newlines is True and must be bytes otherwise.
