Looks like CharacterComplement doesn't return a unicode string so make it a bytestring in python3

fix for #3669 Font issue without PyCXX

characterComplement is essentially a bitfield. See here: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/pclt.htm If we wanted to provide a really Pythonic API to it, it would probably be a list of bools or something. But matplotlib itself doesn't even use this, and it's part of matplotlib's public API so I didn't want to change it (well, not intentionally). |

Thanks for the explanation. I didn't manage to google a good explanation of CharacterComplement |

This fixes #3669 for me. It looks like CharacterComplement doesn't return a valid unicode string so make it a bytestring in python3
This happens to me for the standard matplotlib font matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/ttf/Vera.ttf
not sure why it doesn't happen on travis.
In any case 'characterComplement' is '\xff\xff\xff\xff6\xff\xff\xfe628R00' for this font on both python2 and python3 which looks rather strange to me. I expected this to be a string of all chars that this font contains so perhaps there is a deeper issue?
