Description

According to the specification a handle

is an opaque variable-length string

. Up until now the tests used String(s) because they were executed against the Java server - which uses indeed strings. But real servers use a bunch of bytes - which if we try to decode as UTF-8 might yield exceptions since they might not be UTF-8 strings. E.g., it seems that OpenSSH returns some kind of int as the handle value.
