* Fix for issue #19776
PyJWT 2.0.0 does not return `bytes` for `encode()` instead returns `str`. So converted the `str` to `bytes` and returned the resulting value
* added check for jwt.encode return type
* Update __init__.py
* Updated with suggested change
* Test to check return type of get_token()
The `get_token()` must return a `str` but for PyJWT version < 2.0.0 the `jwt.encode()` returns `bytes`. This test is to make sure if token returned by `get_token()` is `str`.
* Update test_get_token.py
* Update test_get_token.py
* Delete test_get_token.py
