Tim Peters 0de88fc4b1 Change random.seed() so that it can get at the full range of possible
internal states.  Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions.  This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).

Barry Warsaw 30dbd1429a Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module:
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
  callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
  methods.  Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.

- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
  It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
  From_ delimiter lines.  With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
  starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
  check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
