Multipart doesn't support tuple data value

[andreymal]

This works:

client.post(
    url,
    data={"foo": ("1", "2")},  # tuple
)

This works:

client.post(
    url,
    data={"foo": ["1", "2"]},  # list
    files={"test": b"test"},
)

This fails:

client.post(
    url,
    data={"foo": ("1", "2")},  # tuple
    files={"test": b"test"},
)

I guess this line:

httpx/httpx/_multipart.py

Line 194 in 93de198

if isinstance(value, list):

should be implemented in the same way as this line:

httpx/httpx/_content.py

Line 141 in 93de198

if isinstance(value, (list, tuple)):

Fair enough, yup.
