(naive) patch to make captcha.py work with unicode

With some very minor changes to the script this is not true. For example I just
generated a bunch of hebrew captchas (just taking random words off the main
page of [[he:]]) and some Ukraine captchas (because it was the only non-latin
language who had a word list thats just an apt-get away).

My very minor changes included disabling the regex check that words don't match
/[^a-z]/. Presumably other languages would need an equivalent checks, and
checks to avoid words with diacritical marks (since those would i presume be
hard to see in captchas)

p.s. I don't know python, so the very minor changes in my example might not be
the "proper python way".
