RSS._getConverter: Encode strings before handing them off to other functions

Browse Source 
When the feed has a specified encoding, we'll be dealing with unicode objects
in the response from feedparser.parse().  To avoid possible UnicodeErrors, we
need to encode() before handing the string off to other functions, so the
other functions are always dealing with bytestrings instead of bytestrings and
unicode objects.  Mixing unicode and bytestrings will cause implicit
conversions of the unicode objects, which will most likely use the wrong
encoding.
