Description
Hi,
if you get an UnicodeError in debug.py you don't see
the string, which contains the non utf8 character.
This small patch adds a hint, if the exception is an UnicodeError.
The hint displays some character before and after the wrong
character.

10 years later, I noticed these lines aren't tested. I'm not sure if this feature is still needed in a Python 3-only world as I'd think the problematic string would appear in the " Local vars" section of the traceback but there aren't steps to reproduce so perhaps you could give an insight if you remember anything about the original issue, Thomas?
In case the feature in still useful, I made a PR to add a test.
