Bug in 7.1.1: adding request.field() fails if value is not Blob

[schnuet]

Trying to add a field to a request (request.field('keyname', 'fielddata');) fails in 7.1.1 on Google Chrome and generates the following error:

failed to execute 'append' on 'formdata': parameter 2 is not of type 'blob'.

Culprit seems to be this line:
https://github.com/visionmedia/superagent/blob/84206c75214e20bbc688d0645880696ecd773c27/src/request-base.js#L463

Calling FormData.append(name, value, options); does not seem to work if value is not a Blob and options is undefined. The options parameter has to be omitted.

I had the same issue and I've downgraded to 7.0.2 as a work-around for now

Can we get a PR to fix this?

I still can experience the same bug in latest version, v7.1.1. Is there a workaround or a fix planned?
