Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve 3c061f2168 Fixing pybind11::bytes() ambiguous conversion issue.
Adding missing `bytes` type to `test_constructors()`, to exercise the code change.

The changes in the PR were cherry-picked from PR #2409 (with a very minor
modification in test_pytypes.py related to flake8). Via PR #2409, these
changes were extensively tested in the Google environment, as summarized here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TPL-J__mph_yHa1quDvsO12E_F5OZnvBaZlW9IIrz8M/
The changes in this PR did not cause an issues at all.

Note that `test_constructors()` before this PR passes for Python 2 only
because `pybind11::str` can hold `PyUnicodeObject` or `PyBytesObject`. As a
side-effect of this PR, `test_constructors()` no longer relies on this
permissive `pybind11::str` behavior. However, the permissive behavior is still
exercised/exposed via the existing `test_pybind11_str_raw_str()`.

The test code change is designed to enable easy removal later, when Python 2
support is dropped.

For completeness: confusingly, the non-test code changes travelled through PR

Example `ambiguous conversion` error fixed by this PR:
