    testcrypt.py: marshal string literals more efficiently.
    
    The testcrypt protocol expects a string literal to be a concatenation
    of literal bytes other than '%' and '\n', and %-escaped hex digit
    pairs. But testcrypt.py was only ever using the latter format, so even
    a legible ASCII string like "123" was being sent to testcrypt as the
    unreadable and needlessly long "%31%32%33".
    
    When debugging, I often arrange to save the testcrypt input stream to
    a file, and sometimes I use that file as the starting point for
    editing. So it is actually useful to have the protocol exchange be
    legible to humans. Hence, here's a change to testcrypt.py which makes
    it only use the %-escape encoding for byte values that aren't
    printable ASCII.
