Subject: [PATCH] pylightning: Fix missing encode if first pass fails

Without this the RPC will fail to continue buffering if the response does not
fit in the first read, and if we don't switch over to the non-compat
mode. This was introduced by our mitigation of the UTF-8 misalignment, but I
missed this path.
