Description

Hi,

there is a small inconsistency between the README in this repo and the documentation on readthedocs.io. The compiled version for 1.0.1 includes the following section under "Usage", which is not found here:

In Python 3, you need to use decode(‘utf-8’) on generate_password_hash(), like below:
pw_hash = bcrypt.generate_password_hash(‘hunter2’).decode(‘utf-8’)

Research direction

Compare the repository README's Usage section with the compiled 1.0.1 documentation on readthedocs.io, focusing on the Python 3 generate_password_hash example described in the issue. Update the README so the two sources agree, then review the rendered Usage section to confirm the documented example is present and accurate.
