Basic auth with integer username broken in 2.12.2

See original GitHub issue

Previously, it was possible to set auth to something like (42,'password'). This has worked fine since before requests hit 1.0. 2.12.2, a patch release, broke this, causing failures such as the ones seen in this Travis build.

I am not saying the new behavior is incorrect, but this is a breaking change.

This is similar but not the same as #3750, #3736, and #3751.

For the master branch we want a check that says if not isinstance(user/pass, basestring) then we cast to str.
