validator: fix ASCII password check to verify if it can be *encoded* in ascii
In Python 2, unicode strings have a .decode method (which really doesn't make
sense). Python 3 has more strict typing by design, and unicode strings don't
have a .decode method.
A Unicode string "is ASCII" if it can be encoded as ASCII. The check should
thus *encode* to ASCII - not decode.
