Previously, writing to sys.stdout/stderr in text-mode (e.g.
`print('foo')`) while a `capsysbinary` fixture is active, would crash
with:
/usr/lib/python3.7/contextlib.py:119: in __exit__
next(self.gen)
E TypeError: write() argument must be str, not bytes
This is due to some confusion in the types. The relevant functions are
`snap()` and `writeorg()`. The function `snap()` returns what was
captured, and the return type should be `bytes` for the binary captures
and `str` for the regular ones. The `snap()` return value is eventually
passed to `writeorg()` to be written to the original file, so it's input
type should correspond to `snap()`. But this was incorrect for
`SysCaptureBinary`, which handled it like `str`.
To fix this, be explicit in the `snap()` and `writeorg()`
implementations, also of the other Capture types.
We can't add type annotations yet, because the current inheritance
scheme breaks Liskov Substitution and mypy would complain. To be
refactored later.
