Infinite Recursion Inside `strlist.grow`

[AlecRosenbaum]

If you give strlist.grow a subclass of str, strlist.grow will infinitely recurse.

This has come up because of changes using futurize.builtins.str made in an effort to make sourcecode compatible with python 2 and python 3.

It looks like the very strict type checks here are to blame:

pybars3/pybars/_compiler.py

Lines 191 to 197 in 7a8bd6d

	if type(thing) == str_class:
	self.append(thing)
	# This will only ever match in Python 2 since str_class is str in
	# Python 3.
	elif type(thing) == str:
	self.append(unicode(thing)) # noqa: F821 undefined name 'unicode'

In a pdb shell (running latest python 2.7) I get the following output:

(Pdb) ll
 204         def grow(self, thing):
 205             """Make the list longer, appending for unicode, extending otherwise."""
 206             if type(thing) == str_class:
 207                 self.append(thing)
 208
 209             # This will only ever match in Python 2 since str_class is str in
 210             # Python 3.
 211             elif type(thing) == str:
 212                 self.append(unicode(thing))  # noqa: F821 undefined name 'unicode'
 213
 214             else:
 215                 # Recursively expand to a flat list; may deserve a C accelerator at
 216                 # some point.
 217                 for element in thing:
 218  ->                 self.grow(element)
(Pdb) str
<type 'str'>
(Pdb) str_class
<type 'unicode'>
(Pdb) type(thing)
<class 'future.types.newstr.newstr'>
(Pdb) isinstance(thing, str)
False
(Pdb) isinstance(thing, str_class)
True

I suspect just changing the type(thing) == str_class lines to isinstance(type, str_class) will fix the issue.
