Steven Bethard e9330e7941 Initial commit of the argparse library, based on argparse 1.1.
Docs still need some updating to make getopt and optparse match the wording promised in the PEP.
There are also probably a number of :class:ArgumentParser etc. links that could be added to the argparse documentation.

Andrew M. Kuchling 3822af6d3a Add *,**,@ to index, as suggested by
http://farmdev.com/thoughts/24/what-does-the-def-star-variable-or-def-asterisk-parameter-syntax-do-in-python-/

The right entry type to use isn't clear; operator seems wrong, because *,**,@
aren't being used in expressions here.  I put them as 'statement'; 'syntax'
might be better.
