rest: handle endpoints that don't output json

The /changes/<id>/revisions/current/patch?zip endpoint doesn't
return json output but a binary data (the zipped contents of the
change). The usual get() function raises a ValueError when
faced with this. As a workaround provide a get_raw() function
to allow callers to handle the decoding of data.
