This is a follow-on to PR #6671 to fix another potential Python 2
strissue in PR #6655.Currently,
make_subprocess_output_error()will raise aUnicodeDecodeErrorlike the following when callingstr.format()if thecwdcontains a non-ascii character:This PR fixes that issue by safely converting the
cwdto text (unicodein Python 2) before callingstr.format(). It does this by introducing apath_to_display()function that is similar to thestr_to_display()function introduced in PR #6671, except tailored to paths rather than to general bytes objects.
