Error in brine.py with TAG_EMPTY_STR

[pyscripter]

The following function will produce an error in python 3k.

@register(_load_registry, TAG_EMPTY_STR)
def _load_empty_str(stream):
    return ""

The reason is that it will return a unicode string and later _load_unicode will complain that an str object has no method "decode".

Solution:

if is_py3k:
    @register(_load_registry, TAG_EMPTY_STR)
    def _load_empty_str(stream):
        return b""
else:
    @register(_load_registry, TAG_EMPTY_STR)
    def _load_empty_str(stream):
        return ""
