[Python-3000] IDLE encoding setup

This code was now bogus. In 2.x, the line read
 s = unicode(s, IOBinding.encoding)
Then unicode got systematically replaced by str, but so did the type of
s, and this entire block of code was now obsolete; I removed it in
56951.
I now get an IDLE window which crashes as soon as I type something.
