This patch forces swiftclient to encode to utf-8
all url and headers arguments, to avoid the
UnicodeDecodeError which is raised by '\r\n'.join([])
invoked in htplib.py.
Currently the affected projects are Horizon(upload file
with unicode name) and swiftclient CLI('swift post' with
unicode filename as header)
This is also a follow-up of this review:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/14216/
I'd still want to hear what the Swift core devs
think of it. Is it better to create a new
AutoEncodingHTTPConnection? Or to handle the connection
creation and make sure there are no unicode and utf-8
string at the same time. If these unicode checks have to
be added in the calling code(Dashboard, CLI), there are
so many places to be added, and also in all new commands
that might be exposed from the API.
