Encoding error on /jsi18n/?language=ü

Description

When I pass utf-8 symbols in url /jsi18n/?language=ü, I get error:

UnicodeEncodeError at /jsi18n/
'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

There is the similar error (django 1.6, django/utils/translation/trans_real.py, line 357), when I try to pass encoded symbols: /jsi18n/?language=%00%27:

TypeError at /jsi18n/
must be encoded string without NULL bytes, not unicode

It's better to catch this exception and do not throw HTTP 500 error.

Hi,

I can reproduce both errors (the first one only under Python 2).

From the looks of it, there's a similar bug in the set_language view as well.
