Fix bug in passing tuples to string.Template. All other values (with working

str() or repr()) would work, just not multi-value tuples. Probably not a
backport candidate, since it changes the behaviour of passing a
single-element tuple:

>>> string.Template("$foo").substitute(dict(foo=(1,)))

'(1,)'

versus

'1'
