Don't convert to bytes for verification payload

I'm not sure why I was encoding into bytes here, as it's not necessary
at all. This additionally uncovered an annoying gotcha: auth_verify will
crash when the simplejson library is not available, because in that case
the requests library will use python's standard json, which does not
accept bytes as dict values.

Since simplejson merely decodes all bytes back into unicode strings,
just removing the encode() call here should be enough to work with both
backend libraries without any changes required on the API end.
