 Currently, `SimpleUploadedFile` requires a bytes-like object to be passed
 as `content`, and `open()` always returns a `BytesIO`. This makes it
 useless in contexts where text-mode file-like object is expected. (I hit
 this issue when trying to pass `file.open()` to `pandas.read_csv()`, for
 instance.)

 It would be great if `SimpleUploadedFile` would alternatively accept a
 `str`, in which case `open()` would then return a `StringIO` instead.
