python: Add missing I/O methods to RedirectStream

`RedirectStream` is used to redirect `stdout` and `stderr`, but are
missing certain I/O methods available on other file-like objects.
This causes external plugins (like `colorama`) to crash.

Inheriting from `io.IOBase` adds an abstract implementation of these
methods, which will at least keep the python code running.

Fixes #4045
