	* python/python-internal.h (apply_varobj_pretty_printer): Update
	definition.
	(python_string_to_target_python_string): Add definition.
	* python/python-utils.c (unicode_to_encoded_python_string)
	(unicode_to_target_python_string)
	(python_string_to_target_python_string): New Functions.
	* python/python-prettyprint.c (pretty_print_one_value): Likewise.
	(print_string_repr): Refactor to logic to account for PyObject
	returned strings.
	(apply_varobj_pretty_printer): Likewise.
	* python/python-value.c (valpy_string): Parse length keyword. Use
	length keyword in LA_GET_STRING.
	* varobj.c (value_get_print_value): Refactor logic to account for
	PyObject returned strings.
	* c-lang.c (c_get_string): If the length parameter is specified,
	use that. Return value in characters. Update comments.
	* language.h: Update c_get_string prototype comments.
