A note in the docs about int.fr
I think this method is easy to miss, since people look at the docs for
bytes (e.g. using dir(bytes)). It might be worthwhile to either add a
`bytes.to_int(...)` method (better, IMHO), or to point to int.from_bytes on
the relevant part of the docs.

You seem to be using a bytes object as a base-256 number. Under what
circumstances is this desirable?
