Eli Schwartz 4d1be812e8 python3: use the io module everywhere
Make the calibre plugin usage work on python3. Since FanFicFare does not
support python 2.5, make it work by using the modern idiom.

Essentially, six.StringIO and six.BytesIO makes no sense to use
anywhere, since any code that works on python3 at all will also work
with the io module in python >= 2.6. The only caveat is that the
unadorned str type in python2 works with neither, but it is always best
to be explicit and use either unicode or bytes.

There's additional info in the project wiki pages.

Getting FanFicFare

This program is available as a calibre plugin or a command-line interface (via pip).

As of late November 2019, the web service version is shutdown.
See the Wiki Home page for details.

The cli version can also be obtained on Arch Linux from the official repositories:

pacman -S fanficfare

or from git via the AUR package (which will also update the calibre plugin, if calibre is installed).
