Enji Cooper ffbc8cc0f2 Fix encoding issues with python 3
In python 3, the default encoding was switched from ascii character sets to
unicode character sets in order to support internationalization by default.
Some interfaces, like ioctls and packets, however, specify data in terms of
non-unicode encodings formats, either in host endian (`fcntl.ioctl`) or
network endian (`dpkt`) byte order/format.

This change alters assumptions made by previous code where it was all
data objects were assumed to be basestrings, when they should have been
treated as byte arrays. In order to achieve this the following are done:
* str objects with encodings needing to be encoded as ascii byte arrays are
  done so via `.encode("ascii")`. In order for this to work on python 3 in a
  type agnostic way (as it anecdotally varied depending on the caller), call
  `.encode("ascii")` only on str objects with python 3 to cast them to ascii
  byte arrays in a helper function name `str_to_ascii(..)`.
* `dpkt.Packet` objects needing to be passed in to `fcntl.ioctl(..)` are done
  so by casting them to byte arrays via `bytes()`, which calls
  `dpkt.Packet__str__` under the covers and does the necessary str to byte array
  conversion needed for the `dpkt` APIs and `struct` module.

In order to accomodate this change, apply the necessary typecasting for the
byte array literal in order to search `fop.name` for nul bytes.

This resolves all remaining python 2.x and python 3.x compatibility issues on
amd64. More work needs to be done for the tests to function with i386, in
general (this is a legacy issue).

src/tests: The FreeBSD test suite
=================================

To run the FreeBSD test suite:
(1)  Make sure that kyua is installed:
       pkg install kyua
(2)  To run the tests:
       kyua test -k /usr/tests/Kyuafile
(3)  To see the test results:
       kyua report  

For further information on using the test suite, read tests(7):
       man tests

Description of FreeBSD test suite
=================================
The build of the test suite is organized in the following manner:

* The build of all test artifacts is protected by the MK_TESTS knob.
  The user can disable these with the WITHOUT_TESTS setting in
  src.conf(5).

* The goal for /usr/tests/ (the installed test programs) is to follow
  the same hierarchy as /usr/src/ wherever possible, which in turn drives
  several of the design decisions described below.  This simplifies the
  discoverability of tests.  We want a mapping such as:

    /usr/src/bin/cp/      -> /usr/tests/bin/cp/
    /usr/src/lib/libc/    -> /usr/tests/lib/libc/
    /usr/src/usr.bin/cut/ -> /usr/tests/usr.bin/cut/
    ... and many more ...

* Test programs for specific utilities and libraries are located next
  to the source code of such programs.  For example, the tests for the
  src/lib/libcrypt/ library live in src/lib/libcrypt/tests/.  The tests/
  subdirectory is optional and should, in general, be avoided.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy (this directory) provides generic test
  infrastructure and glue code to join all test programs together into
  a single test suite definition.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy also includes cross-functional test programs:
  i.e. test programs that cover more than a single utility or library
  and thus don't fit anywhere else in the tree.  Consider this to follow
  the same rationale as src/share/man/: this directory contains generic
  manual pages while the manual pages that are specific to individual
  tools or libraries live next to the source code.

In order to keep the src/tests/ hierarchy decoupled from the actual test
programs being installed --which is a worthy goal because it simplifies
the addition of new test programs and simplifies the maintenance of the
tree-- the top-level Kyuafile does not know which subdirectories may
exist upfront.  Instead, such Kyuafile automatically detects, at
run-time, which */Kyuafile files exist and uses those directly.

Similarly, every directory in src/ that wants to install a Kyuafile to
just recurse into other subdirectories reuses this Kyuafile with
auto-discovery features.  As an example, take a look at src/lib/tests/
whose sole purpose is to install a Kyuafile into /usr/tests/lib/.
The goal in this specific case is for /usr/tests/lib/ to be generated
entirely from src/lib/.
