A UnicodeDecodeError is raised in transfer module when attempting to prefetch a magnet. This is result of passing a Python dict containing text bytes and raw bytes that cannot be decoded as utf-8 in rencode when recieving the message. This could be handled in rencode by returning raw bytes if decoding fails (perhaps with a strict mode?) however better to follow convention of encoding raw bytes in base64 in API calls. Fixed by retaining bencoding and encoding with base64 when sending result. Resolves: https://github.com/deluge-torrent/deluge/pull/334
