The `read-char` used by the `avy-goto-*` commands can return Emacs events which will not pass `characterp` (i.e. `A-v` will generate an event `4194422`). As the `avy-goto-*` commands are generally converting the value returned by `(let ((char (read-char ...))))` to a string (via `(string char)`), this causes a `wrong-type-argument` error to be thrown from these functions. Wrapping the `read-char` with `event-basic-type` avoids this error.
