py3: return unicode from setup.py's get_version
py3 expects the version number for eggs to be unicode, so despite 9.2.0 being
the first evolve release with beta py3 support it isn't currently pip
installable since it dies with:
File "*/setuptools/command/egg_info.py", line *, in tagged_version
return safe_version(version + self.vtags)
TypeError: can't concat str to bytes
The `setup.py install` test added in a previous commit should cover this since
it died in a different but similar way before.

py3: remove smartquotes from README
They break running setup.py with py3 but only in tests, because in the test
environment `locale.getpreferredencoding()` is ANSI_X3.4-1968, so the file is
`open()`ed with that as the encoding. An alternative for fixing this would be
to make the `open()` call with `encoding='utf-8'` under py3, which would be
safe against any future non-ascii in README.
