SharedMemory.unlink() uses the unregister() function from resource_tracker. Previously it was imported in the method, but this can fail if the method is called during interpreter shutdown, for example when unlink is part of a __del__() method.
Moving the import to the top of the file, means that the unregister() method is available during interpreter shutdown.
The register call in SharedMemory.__init__() can also use this imported resource_tracker.
Avoid linear runtime of ShareableList.__getitem__ and
ShareableList.__setitem__ by storing running allocated bytes in
ShareableList._allocated_bytes instead of the number of bytes for
a particular stored item.

The multiprocessing.resource_tracker replaces the multiprocessing.semaphore_tracker module. Other than semaphores, resource_tracker also tracks shared_memory segments. Patch by Pierre Glaser.
* Added tests for shared_memory submodule.
* Added tests for ShareableList.
* Fix bug in allocationn size during creation of empty ShareableList illuminated by existing test run on Linux.
* Initial set of docs for shared_memory module.
* Added docs for ShareableList, added doctree entry for shared_memory submodule, name refactoring for greater clarity.
* Added examples to SharedMemoryManager docs, for ease of documentation switched away from exclusively registered functions to some explicit methods on SharedMemoryManager.
* Wording tweaks to docs.
* Fix test failures on Windows.
* Added tests around SharedMemoryManager.
* Documentation tweaks.
* Fix inappropriate test on Windows.
* Further documentation tweaks.
* Fix bare exception.
* Removed __copyright__.
* Fixed typo in doc, removed comment.
* Updated SharedMemoryManager preliminary tests to reflect change of not supporting all registered functions on SyncManager.
* Added Sphinx doctest run controls.
* CloseHandle should be in a finally block in case MapViewOfFile fails.
* Missed opportunity to use with statement.
* Switch to self.addCleanup to spare long try/finally blocks and save one indentation, change to use decorator to skip test instead.
* Simplify the posixshmem extension module.
Provide shm_open() and shm_unlink() functions. Move other
functionality into the shared_memory.py module.
* Added to doc around size parameter of SharedMemory.
* Changed PosixSharedMemory.size to use os.fstat.
* Change SharedMemory.buf to a read-only property as well as NamedSharedMemory.size.
* Marked as provisional per PEP411 in docstring.
* Changed SharedMemoryTracker to be private.
* Removed registered Proxy Objects from SharedMemoryManager.
* Removed shareable_wrap().
* Removed shareable_wrap() and dangling references to it.
* For consistency added __reduce__ to key classes.
* Fix for potential race condition on Windows for O_CREX.
* Remove unused imports.
* Update access to kernel32 on Windows per feedback from eryksun.
* Moved kernel32 calls to _winapi.
* Removed ShareableList.copy as redundant.
* Changes to _winapi use from eryksun feedback.
* Adopt simpler SharedMemory API, collapsing PosixSharedMemory and WindowsNamedSharedMemory into one.
* Fix missing docstring on class, add test for ignoring size when attaching.
* Moved SharedMemoryManager to managers module, tweak to fragile test.
* Tweak to exception in OpenFileMapping suggested by eryksun.
* Mark a few dangling bits as private as suggested by Giampaolo.
