Reading from stdin might not work. #283
Description
cpplint.py says it can read code from stdin when using - as a file path.
https://github.com/cpplint/cpplint/blob/develop/cpplint.py#L6652
So, I tried echo "int a = int(1.0);" | python cpplint.py - on Ubuntu 20.04 with Python3.8.
What I expected was like this.
Done processing -
-:1: Using deprecated casting style. Use static_cast<int>(...) instead [readability/casting] [4]
Total errors found: 1
But I got an error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cpplint.py", line 6970, in <module>

data = self.bytebuffer + newdata
TypeError: can't concat str to bytes
I tried both the latest commit and v1.6.1 but got the same result.
Am I missing something? or is it a bug?
