#4661: add bytes parsing and generation to email (email version bump to 5.1.0)
The work on this is not 100% complete, but everything is present to
allow real-world testing of the code. The only remaining major todo
item is to (hopefully!) enhance the handling of non-ASCII bytes in headers
converted to unicode by RFC2047 encoding them rather than replacing them with
'?'s.
