The assignment node will insert a type conversion of the right hand side to
unicodestring.
In 2.6.x, the right hand side will already be a unicodestring and nothing will
happen.
In 2.7.x, the type conversion node will be simplified into a unicodestring
constant because it is a typeconversion of a constant (just like int64(1) is
also handled at compile time).

That string contains codepoints > #255 and hence is a unicodestring rather than
a single byte string. No conversion at either compile or run time happens, and
the codepage directive has no influence.
