git-remote-testpy: fix path hashing on Python 3

When this change was originally made (0846b0c - git-remote-testpy: hash bytes explicitly , I didn't realise that the "hex" encoding we chose is a "bytes to bytes" encoding so it just fails with an error on Python 3 in the same way as the original code. It is not possible to provide a single code path that works on Python 2 and Python 3 since Python 2.x will attempt to decode the string before encoding it, which fails for strings that are not valid in the default encoding. Python 3.1 introduced the "surrogateescape" error handler which handles this correctly and permits a bytes -> unicode -> bytes round-trip to be lossless. As the original came from reading the filesystem path, we convert them back into the original bytes encoded in sys.getfilesystemencoding(). At this point Python 3.0 is unsupported so we don't go out of our way to try to support it.
