Fix memory leaks revealed by valgrind and ensuing code inspection.
In the existing test suite valgrind revealed two memory leaks (DB_get
and DBC_set_range). Code inspection revealed that there were many other
potential similar leaks (many on odd code error paths such as passing
something other than a DBTxn object for a txn= parameter or in the face
of an out of memory error). The most common case that would cause a
leak was when using recno or queue format databases with integer keys,
sometimes only with an exception exit.
Cleaned up existing code by abstracting code to parse arguments. Also removed
any unneeded operations (such as calling 'int' on a division when using floor
division also works). Fixed a bug where the values returned by
OldStyleRange could be short by one value. Added more documentation.
Testing code also has a basic sanity check.
opening the DB to implement legacy interface flag='n' support as

regrtest.py after it ran test_frozen. This test was really only
designed to be run immediately after startup. Afterwards, other
modules could be loaded when had not been fixed-up by site.py
Took the chicken way out and only tested those modules known to
be imported by site.py.
* Normalized whitespace.
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.
New include file timefuncs.h exports private API function
_PyTime_DoubleToTimet() from timemodule.c. timemodule should export
some other functions too (look for painful bits in datetimemodule.c).
Added insane-argument checking to datetime's assorted fromtimestamp()
and utcfromtimestamp() methods. Added insane-argument tests of these
to test_datetime, and insane-argument tests for ctime(), localtime()
and gmtime() to test_time.
more than a second of precision. Primarily affects ctime, localtime, and
gmtime.
Closes bug #919012 thanks to Tim Peters' code.
Tim suggests that the new funciton being introduced, _PyTime_DoubletoTimet(),
should be added to the internal C API and then used in datetime where
appropriate. Not being done now for lack of time.
