fix

Description of problem:
After update to Fedora 19 urlwatch is using python3. I am not sure, if
this is my problem, but "URLs" with pipe can't be processed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
urlwatch-1.15-4.fc19.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. edit urls.txt
2. add "|cat /etc/hosts"
3. urlwatch

Actual results:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/bin/urlwatch", line 333, in <module>
    timestamp_new))
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.3/difflib.py", line 1225, in unified_diff
    yield '+' + line
TypeError: Can't convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly

Additional info:
Patch which helped me is attached. Upstream (Thomas Perl) response to my patch:

>Thanks for the patch. I'll consider merging it once I migrate the whole urlwatch
>codebase to Python3-only.
>
>HTH :)

Looks like it will not be applied in short time, so please apply to Fedora package.
