Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite

precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682 . It's
useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.
I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
* Rational.from_decimal()
* Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
* Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
* Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
* Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

Surprising behaviour of the "$" regexp: it matches the

re.sub('$', '#', 'foo\n') == 'foo#\n#'
Python is consistent with Perl and the pcre library, so
we just document it.
Guido prefers "\Z" to match only the end of the string.

Continue rolling back pep-3141 changes that changed behavior from 2.5. This
...
round included:
* Revert round to its 2.6 behavior (half away from 0).
* Because round, floor, and ceil always return float again, it's no
longer necessary to have them delegate to __xxx___, so I've ripped
that out of their implementations and the Real ABC. This also helps
in implementing types that work in both 2.6 and 3.0: you return int
from the __xxx__ methods, and let it get enabled by the version
upgrade.
* Make pow(-1, .5) raise a ValueError again.

r57372, r57738, r57739, r58017, r58039, r58040, and r59390, and new
documentation. The only significant difference is that round(x) returns a float
to preserve backward-compatibility. See http://bugs.python.org/issue1689 .

Improve docs for itertools.groupby(). The use of xrange(0) to create a unique object is less obvious than object().

Patch #1583 by Adam Olsen.
...
This adds signal.set_wakeup_fd(fd) which sets a file descriptor to
which a zero byte will be written whenever a C exception handler runs.
I added a simple C API as well, PySignal_SetWakeupFd(fd).
