[PyQt] TypeError in QImage.loadFromData() in PyQt5.5.1

[Milorad Pop-Tosic]

Hi all,

Our tests detected a possible regression in QImage.loadFromData() after we switched from PyQt 5.4.1 to 5.5.1.
This snippet demonstrates the problem:

from PyQt5.QtGui import QImage
image = QImage()
image.loadFromData('abc')

On PyQt5.5.1 this fails with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: arguments did not match any overloaded call:
  QImage.loadFromData(str, str format=None): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'
  QImage.loadFromData(QByteArray, str format=None): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

On PyQt5.4.1 it works fine.

Environment:
Python 3.4.2 on Windows in both cases.

Thanks,
Milorad
