fauna uploads fail in python 3 unicode error #81

Open lmoncla opened 6 years ago

When uploading new fasta files to fauna with python 3, upload.py fails at lines 59, 102, and 148 with: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'. This does not occur with python 2.

none of nextstrain python is currently python3 conform. We should address that soon though. unicode is the default string in python3 and the decode behavior has changed.
