text() throws TypeError when giving a non-string value to it's s parameter

[notbored]

pyxel.text(50, 50, pyxel.frame_count, 1)

Causes:

TypeError: argument 's': 'int' object cannot be converted to 'PyString'

Works fine if you explicitly convert integer/non-string values to a string using str():

pyxel.text(50, 50, str(pyxel.frame_count), 1)

Would it be possible for text() to behave similarly to print() and convert all arguments to strings where necessary.

It's a good idea, but due to the Rust module for making Python interface, it's difficult to implement without dirty hack on Python side. When I found the way of automatic casting on pyo3 (it's the name of the rust module), I'll implement this feature.

Can rust code call the Python function str, or its equivalent in the Rust API?
