Description

This patch has MythDB.py catching up with the change of some fields to "utf8_general_ci" in trunk.

Specifies that all string fields are to be returned as 'utf8' strings. Without this patch all fields specified as "utf8_general_ci" were being returned as 'str' type variables. This made processing problematic for python scripts expecting utf8 strings from the trunk v0.22 Mythtv database.
