Change Windows file.truncate() to (a) restore the original file position,
...
and (b) stop trying to prevent file growth.
Beef up the file.truncate() docs.
Change test_largefile.py to stop assuming that f.truncate() moves the
file pointer to the truncation point, and to verify instead that it leaves
the file position alone. Remove the test for what happens when a
specified size exceeds the original file size (it's ill-defined, according
to the Single Unix Spec).

file_truncate(): provide full "large file" support on Windows, by
...
dropping MS's inadequate _chsize() function. This was inspired by
SF patch 498109 ("fileobject truncate support for win32"), which I
rejected.
libstdtypes.tex: Someone who knows should update the availability
blurb. For example, if it's available on Linux, it would be good to
say so.
test_largefile: Uncommented the file.truncate() tests, and reworked to
do more. The old comment about "permission errors" in the truncation
tests under Windows was almost certainly due to that the file wasn't open
for *write* access at this point, so of course MS wouldn't let you
truncate it. I'd be appalled if a Unixish system did.
CAUTION: Someone should run this test on Linux (etc) too. The
truncation part was commented out before. Note that test_largefile isn't
run by default.

SF bug #501591 : dir() doc is old
...
Bugfix candidate.
+ Updated dir() description to match actual 2.2 behavior.
+ Replaced the dir(sys) example with dir(struct), because the former
was way out of date and is bound to change frequently, while the
latter is stable.
+ Added a note cautioning that dir() is supplied primarily for
convenience at an interactive prompt (hoping to discourage its
use as the foundation of introspective code outside the core).
