Assume decode_responses=False and fail loudly - #85

Conversation
Redis connections always use the redis-py default decode_responses=False, so drop the isinstance bytes/str fallbacks. The reaper no longer swallows unreadable payloads: misconfiguration and Redis data altered mid-flight fail loudly instead of being handled defensively. Document both design decisions in CONTRIBUTING.md and require a persistent Redis without eviction in the README.
