Unicode objects are passed back as-is (subclasses are converted to
true Unicode objects), all other objects are delegated to
PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject(obj, NULL, "strict") which results in
- using the default encoding as basis for decoding the object.

The API returns NULL in case of an error. The caller is responsible
for decref'ing the returned objects.
