Summary: ignore "b" and "t" mode modifiers in posix_popen

Initial Comment:
Fixes bug 703198.  This patch removes any "b" or "t"
modifiers, which have meaning in Windows (binary and
text modes, respectively), but not in POSIX.  This
allows users to write portable code between Windows and
POSIX when working on binary data in pipes:
os.popen(cmd, 'rb').

Maybe I'm mistaken: Does this patch really modify the string
object that is being passed? This would not be good: strings
are immutable.
