bricks/_common/mpconfigport: enable unicode support

Enable MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_STR_UNICODE on hubs with PYBRICKS_OPT_EXTRA_MOD. Without this, there is not any difference between str and bytes, which can make it hard to work with multi-byte characters.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
 ### Changed
-
+- Enabled UTF-8 support for `str` objects.
 - The method `DriveBase.angle()` now returns a float ([support#1844]). This
   makes it properly equivalent to `hub.imu.heading`.
