#26549: HttpResponse.__str__ is missing on Python 3

The HttpResponse class includes this block:
{{{
if six.PY3:
__bytes__ = serialize
else:
__str__ = serialize
}}}
Because `__str__` is not defined when `six.PY3` is True, calling
`str(response_object)` falls back to `__repr__` on Python 3. However,
`__str__` is defined on Python 2, and it returns the full HTTP message.
It seems like bad idea to have the output of the "convert to string"
action be different based on Python version, as it makes multi-version
code difficult to implement and debug.
