Title:
  neutron.agent.linux.utils.execute() fails to handle decoding in system
  locale (eg: Japanese)

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The issue is that execute() method formats stderr and stdout in an
  str-type string into a unicode-type string (since it is doing _()
  which would be unicode).When we do string formatting on that, it is
  doing an implicit conversion from str-type to unicode-type strings
  using the system locale. This is going to cause an error with Japanese
  and other languages with non-ascii characters (stdout/stderr
  characters that are not in that locale specific character set)

  eg:
  response = utils.execute(full_args, check_exit_code=False)\n File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/neutron/agent/linux/utils.py", line 120, in execute\n stderr=_stderr)\nUnicodeDecodeError: \'ascii\' codec can\'t decode byte 0xe6 in position 141: ordinal not in range(128)\n'
