Unicode support is broken.

As I was on Bug #1242399 I found this bug. There seem to be a problem in the latest version which refuses to decode a PNG. Note that the URL does not even contain Unicode, this is 100% pure ASCII.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/qtqr", line 540, in decodeFile
    if qr.decode():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/qrtools.py", line 181, in decode
    raw = pil.tostring()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 695, in tostring
    "Please call tobytes() instead.")
Exception: tostring() has been removed. Please call tobytes() instead.

As the error says, I tried to change the tostring() with tobytes() and it works now.

Hello Alexis,

This has been already fixed in the daily PPA months ago. Thank you for
input!

Regards,
Ramiro.
