If assigning binary content to an EmailMessage via set_content(), the function email.contentmanager.set_bytes_content() is called. This function fails when choosing the 7bit transfer encoding because of a call to data.decode('ascii').

The fix looks good to me.  Don't know how I made that mistake, and obviously I didn't write a test for it...

Thanks! Is there anything I need to do regarding the Python 3.8 and 3.9 backports?
