Fix marshalling in P4 convert extension to use a binary stream

The Perforce convert extension uses the p4 -G command line
option and marshal.load to obtain information about the history
of a Perforce depot.

The method marshal.load must be provided with a binary stream
(mode='rb') in order to function reliably.  Certain changelist
descriptions or other elements in a depot history could trigger
a premature EOFError, causing the conversion process to fail.

This may resolve the issue discussed in the following thread:
