> The name of ToStringCoder class [1] is confusing, since the output of
> encode() on Python3 will be bytes. On Python 2 the output is also bytes,
> since bytes and string are synonyms on Py2.
> ToBytesCoder would be a better name for this class.
> Note that this class is not listed in coders that constitute Public APIs [2],
> so we can treat this as internal change. As a courtesy to users who happened
> to reference a non-public coder in their pipelines we can keep the old class
> name as an alias, e.g. ToStringCoder = ToBytesCoder to avoid friction, but
> clean up Beam codeabase to use the new name.
